Sharepoint 2003 Cannot save change by IE when click Save and Close button to save change on survey item

I am using Windows 7 SP1(cannot confirm the IE version, suppose IE8).When I tried to edit a survey item, click Save and Close button. Data cannot be saved.No problem with my account or permission since I can change it on another computer.Below action cannot
fix the problem:clean IE catch, reset IE, reinstall IE, rebuild windows profile.
error can be seen at the IE status bar
Erros on this webpage might cause it to work incorrectly

InfoPath save and close button?

I've seen this done so I know there is a way to do it, just haven't found the solution
I want to create a browser-based form that has a button to be able to save (not submit, just save), and close the form. InfoPath seems to lock out the option to add a rule to close the form if you want to save it, and there is no rule to save, only submit.

Here's what I do as a standard practice for the file naming convention. I do not use "now()" because then each time you edited the same form, it would create a new file. You only want one file per form, right?
Create a field called "FormCreated", and set its default value to now(). UNcheck the box so that the value is never recalculated.
In your submit connection, use this "FormCreated" field as your file name, and DO check the box to allow overwrite.
As far as the workflow, if it's set to run on change, then when you use the submit action, the workflow will run.

Automatically open, save and close excel?

I need import data from Excel to SQL.
Now, I use tSQL to directly read the excel files and transform to the SQL table.
As the user Excel is not a good format for SQL to read, I need use formula to transform the excel to be a SQL readable format.
Now, I add a sheet to copy the data from the sheet which user input the data and then ask the user to copy the excel to a specific location for import.
However, this will make the data in the excel double and result a large excel file.
I am thinking if it is possible to create a excel to use formula to copy the data from another excel.
Then, I need find some method to open that excel, let the content refresh from the source excel, save and close it.
Then I can directly use this excel for data import.
Is there any simple way to do so? I don't know marco much...
Ivan

No formula could do this (Automatically open, save and close excel).
You need to recode a marco or write a macro. Why donot you ask in msdn?
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=exceldev&filter=alltypes&sort=lastpostdesc
example:
Sub auto_open()
Application.OnTime Now + TimeValue("00:01:00"), "wswx"
End Sub
Sub
wswx() If Not ThisWorkbook.Saved
Then ThisWorkbook.Save
ThisWorkbook.Close
End Sub

Save and Close button issue in CRM 2013 for Activity Type Appointment

Hi All,
Have come across a strange behavior in CRM 2013 and would like to be sure that it really is an issue which others have encountered too.
Open a Case record, and click on Activity navigation link to see the Open Activity Associated View. Then try creating an Activity of type Meeting and click on
Save & Close button (not just Save). When you refresh the view, the activity might show up. But repeat the same steps and create another Activity of Type Meeting and this activity will not show up. It doesnt show up even in the All Activities
view. Seems like the activity does not get created when using Save and Close button.
This behavior is replicated even on online 30 day trial version. Any inputs?
Regards,
Yogesh

The problem only occurs when your appointment times clash. "Save and close" just throws the appointment away. "Save" tells you about clash (or perhaps it's just unavailability) and allows you to ignore and continue with the
save.

Save and close popup window

I have a typical popup window launched using the builtin javascript:popupURL().
I would like a Save and Close button on this popup window that does
1. Submits the popup page so that changes are saved into session state
2. Close the popup window
3. Refresh the parent window so that updates in (1) are reflected
What is the recommended way of doing this? I was thinking of the following URL redirect on the Save & Close button
doSubmit('SAVE');
window.opener.location.reload();
window.close();Do I need a same-page branch on the popup page? If so, why? If not, why? ;-)
Comments?
Thanks

This is a bit of javascript that I nicked which works well for me:
-- 1. Add the folowing to your page header or create a new page template --
-- (popup window template) and put it in the header section. --
SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
function loadinparent(url, closeSelf){
self.opener.location = url;
if(closeSelf) self.close();
</SCRIPT>
-- 2. Use the following to call the function. the true and false keeps the parent--
-- window open or closed. Obviously set any values in the URL. --
javascript:loadinparent(''<URL>'', true)
eg. javascript:loadinparent(''f?p=&APP_ID.:40:&SESSION.::NO::P40_ID:'||ID||''', true)

Hello, Indesign 6 will not allow me to save and close my file

Hello, Indesign 6 will not allow me to save and close my file

Try exporting to .idml. If that works, openthe .idml and save as a new .indd.
If it doesn't work, force quit ID and then restart. Auto-recovery should kick in and reopen the file at about the last state, then try again.

Keep getting corrupted temp save file when I save and close.

When I save and close a numbers spreadsheet, about 20% of the time I will be left with the normal file and a weird temporary file with a "~" on the end of the file name. I can't delete the file or do anything with it. It will let me open it, but even when I save it still says I cant delete because the file is in use.
Example-
Work on spreadsheet1. Hit save and then close.
In finder I am left with-
spreadsheet1
spreadsheet1~
"spreadsheet1" is the correct file and it works and functions normally, but "spreadsheet1~" is corrupt and I cant seem to delete it. I always get "The operation can’t be completed because the item “spreadsheet1~” is in use.
What is causing this and how can I get rid of those files?

I think I would ignore the files and not worry about them. Are you experiencing any undesirable effects of these files-- aside from seeing them there?

CRM 2013 - "Save and Close" button behavnig like "Save and New"

Hi,
I am working in CRM 2013. I have a scenario in which I am saving new opportunity product record through javascript and preventing original save of CRM. Save is working fine. After save, I need to refresh the screen. So I have used "Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm"
to open newly created item in edit mode. When I click on "Save and Close" button on this new form in edit mode, instead of closing the opportunity product screen, it opens new entity form. So in short, after saving the record, if I click on "Save
and Close", it behaves like "Save and New".
Any one facing such issue?

Save & Close seems to behave like the Save & "Back" Button, so the form tries to return to the new form, that was opened before.
But I have no solution for this behavior...

Firefox asks (twice) to save and close tabs, on new open windows without tabs, when i close them.

About one month ago, i started to receive a message box from firefox, asking if i wanted to save and close tabs, on newly open windows (and pop-ups) without any tabs open on them.
And everytime i close the windows without tabs, firefox asks it twice...
I did not made any changes, so i don't know why it started doing this.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Save and close InDesign file CS4 JS

Hi, I need to save and close InDesign file after export pdf was done. Once export is complete the script opens the pdf file and the script gets interrupted. Here what I was trying and I am not sure if it even in the right direction:
#targetengine "session"
main();
function main(){
    var myApplicationEventListener = app.eventListeners.add("afterExport",
    mySaveInDesign, false);
    var myDocumentEventListener = app.documents.item(0).eventListeners.add
    ("afterExport", mySaveInDesign, false);
    app.scriptPreferences.version = 6.0;
var myEventNames = ["afterExport"] ;
function mySaveInDesign(myEvent){
    var myDocument = myEvent.parent;
    saveInDesign ();
function saveInDesign (){
    //myDocument.save(myDocument);
    app.activeDocument.save(myDocument);
    app.activeDocument.close(myDocument);
Your help is highly appreciated.
Yulia

Save either takes no argument (equivalent to the File/Save menu option) or a file path, equivalent to File/Save As.
So, your save commands aren't going to work as written. You either need just save(); or save(myDocument.fullName);

Getting hang/crash problem when I try to close browser window from applet

I have a small Apllet that has a button that calls a Javascript function in the opening window, to close the window in which it is loaded.
The Applet window is a PopUp window from one of my application's window. First time I start my application and load that Applet the button works fine. It calls the Javascript method and the Method closes the window using the self.close() method.
But now if I open the applet window again and click on the button to close the windows, it hangs. I put in trace statements and saw that it hangs on JSObject.getWindow() window.
I am using JDK Plugin 1.4.2_07 and 5.0 , if I work out on IE browser, it works fine.But when I use firefox or mozilla it gives problem of hanging/crashing.
Note that in case of 1.4.2_07 this problem experienced some times but in case of 5.0 it gives always for other than IE browser.
Please, if somebody could give me some clue about why this would happen, I will really appreciate that. and code related to this is given below
import javax.swing.JApplet;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import netscape.javascript.JSObject;
public class TestApplet extends JApplet implements ActionListener{
protected JButton closeButton = null;
protected JSObject win = null;
private JFrame frame = null;
private boolean alreadyClosed = false;
public void init(){
this.win = JSObject.getWindow(this);
this.closeButton = new JButton("Close Browser Window");
this.add(this.closeButton);
this.closeButton.addActionListener(this);
frame = new JFrame("Test Frame");
frame.setSize(300, 400);
frame.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
System.out.println("windowClosing");
alreadyClosed = true;
TestApplet.this.stop();
frame.show();
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae){
stop();
public void stop() {
if (!alreadyClosed) {
alreadyClosed = true;
frame.dispose();
closeLaunchedBrowser();
System.gc();
System.runFinalization();
private void closeLaunchedBrowser() {
final TestApplet thisObject = this;
Runnable r = new Runnable() {
public void run() {
try {
JSObject win = (JSObject)JSObject.getWindow(thisObject);
if (win != null && win.toString() != null) {
//win.eval("top.opener=self;self.close();");
//win.call("close", null);
win.eval("self.close();");
} catch (Exception e) {
Thread t = new Thread(r);
t.start();
Thanks.

I am waiting for any reply. I have tried for all these below options still I am getting Problem. I heard this is because of javascript, it wont call methods more times .Thats
why I need other than JSObject or java script solution.If some one know anything about this or any modifications I have to made for the below options to avoid that problem please let me know.
// URL durl = new URL(thisObject.getCodeBase(), "test/CloseMe.htm");
// System.out.println("URL :" + durl.toString());
// thisObject.getAppletContext().showDocument(durl);
// thisObject.getAppletContext().showDocument(new URL("javascript:window.close();"), "_self");
//win.eval("top.opener=self;top.close();");
//win.call("close", null);
//Object[] args = { "close", new Integer(50) };
// win.call("setTimeout", args);
//win.eval("setTimeout("close", new Integer(50));");
If it is the problem of JRE I just need it should work on 1.4.2_01 or higher.
thanks.

Does anybody know how to cancle this asking?
Could you share me how to advoid asking for save when close the pdf form?
Thank you all!!!

Hi,
I created a pdf form by Adobe LiveCycle, inside, there is a button that you can click it and export the data(not script) of PDF to xml file. So I don't need to save the PDF form again.
I try to edit my form by adobe reader, after I fill in some fields and close it, a window jumps out and asks if I want to save the changes, So how can I avoid this window?
Thanks!
Ellie
