Simple Q. how to store/publish acrobat form and "return" as email attachment

New to acrobat.com and wondering if this can be done (with acrobat.com).
I have roughly 20 acrobat forms that I want to be accessible on the internet for about 5 specific people to access via the internet. The goal would be for them to click on the acrobat form, fill it out and then "return" it to me as an email attachment. The forms are not complex or long, typically 5 questions to respond to.
So, I signed up for the free buzz option, uploaded a pdf form and saved it in a shared workspace. I see the file (test.pdf) in the all files section. The downward-pointing triangular arrow next to the file gives me the option of open vs download vs share among other choices. I really just want to open, but when I try that it says"this file is a pdf form. Please download the file and use adobe reader to fill out the form and submit your responses". I then click download it then asks for a location (this will be a problem-source of confusion). I save it to a location but that location already has that file and wants to overwrite it-another problem. I quickly see that this is the wrong solution for me.
So, can this be done with acrobat.com or should I be using something like dreamweaver and a personal web site? Thanks in advance.

Hello there,
Thank you for your post. What you would like to do is most easily achieved using Acrobat desktop software; this is a well-defined workflow, using Acrobat.com to distribute forms and collect responses, and deliver these responses to the Acrobat Tracker, where you can then analyze them and sort the data. If you're on a Windows machine, I recommend downloading a free 30-day trial of Acrobat Pro software, which you can get here:
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/tryout.html
(Unfortunately, there is no trial available for Mac at this time.)
Beyond that, there really isn't a more streamlined way to collect form responses with Acrobat.com; the Acrobat workflow works very well, however, and I encourage you to give it a shot. Here's a video that illustrates how it works:
http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/video_workshop/?id=vid0348
Please let me know if you have any further questions about Acrobat.com, and I will be happy to answer them for you.
Best regards,
Rebecca

How do store a frame number and return to it?

I wish to include a rollover icon which is available at all
times during the movie that displays a map.
When users place the mouse within the icon, the movie
switches to a frame where the map is located.
What I can’t seem to do is write the code to cause the
movie to return to the frame it was on when the icon was selected.
Are there any suggestions???

How can I click Acrobat Form button from VB (Excel Macro)?

I may be asking in the wrong forum, but I'm at my wit's end and think just about anyone with VB experience would be able to tell me what I'm doing wrong. Is there a forum for interapplication/ VB/ forms questions?
Suffice to say, I know very little about VB (or any of the other languages behind the software), but I've adapted code which has allowed me to get almost everything I need done, thus far.
I'm trying, desperately, to finalize a Macro which enables me to export a lot of Excel info into individual Acrobat Forms and save them all independently. This all works fine, but there is one last thing I've not been able to accomplish: I need to remote click (or 'focus on') a button in the Acrobat form in order to select the icon button (dynamically set image relevant to each individual form, base on excel cell). The button's name, in Acrobat, is 'Photo1' and it is located on the 3rd page of the form. I've several SendKeys commands in order to save each file with a unique, row specific name.
Option Explicit
Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long

I'm pretty sure one of many issues is that I don't know the fully-qualified name of the field/button, or how to properly identify it in the Macro.
I have no doubt that my approach, if it's even possible, is clumsy and unfounded, but I am (obviously) flailing around for anything that can achieve clicking this confounded button. Any help appreciated.

It was a button option - I haven't got access to Acrobat 8 here at home, but it was something like
Add menu item
File - attach to email
When the button was clicked, the email application would open with a new email and the PDF would be attached, so you could enter the recipients email address and send.

How do I take two separate non numeric fields in a acrobat form and combine the data to display in a third separate field?

How do I take two separate non numeric fields in a acrobat form and combine the data to display in a third separate field?

You have to use custom JavScripting to concatenate the first 2 fields. You cannot use the first 2 calculation options because they force the values of the fields to a numeric value or ignore string values.
Possible scripts for the 3rd field are:
event.value = this.getField("Text1").valueAsString + " " + this.getField("Text2").valueAsString;
or
event.value = this.getField("Text1").valueAsString.concat( " ", this.getField("Text2").valueAsString);
If you do not want change the separator or not show the separator when on or the other field is empty, you will need to add more code to adjust for change.
The above scripts will also concatenate number because the field values are read as strings and not numbers.
There is also a generalized user written function to concatenate up to 3 fields with a separator that adjust for missing data.

How to deploy the Oracle Forms and Reports 10g in Web?

Currently I am working in Oracle forms & Reports conversion project (6i to 10g).
As of now 6i forms working as a standalone application. After migrated it to 10g, I need to deploy the forms and reports in web.
Any one know how to deploy the Oracle forms and Reports in web?
Please help me out. Thanks in advance.

Hello Frank,
for development, you need to install Oracle Developer
Suite 10g. This includes Forms and Reports.this topic interests me too, because I've downloaded Developer Suite and Database (both for 10g) from Oracle website, installed them, but I couldn't connect to a database.
What should be done for me to create a database link and be able to connect locally, in my personal Desktop computer? (Not to a server)
Once it was told me here that I should download 10g Database - I did it, and installed it, but it didn't work. Later, some of my job partners said I should install them in a sequence - that is, 1st the Developer, and 2nd the Database. But it has failed too. And I don't know how to configure a database connection.
Best regards,

I just updated to Adobe Reader 11.0.07 on my Mac OS version 10.6.8 and now the video files don't work. How do I uninstall the update and return to the previous version?

I received a notice from Chris Campbell at Adobe that stated : "....we are aware that Macs created between 2006 and 2008 are currently running into problems using the latest release of Flash Player (version 13)." My question is will the update of Adobe Reader 11.0.07 cause this problem with Flash Player 13 on my Mac? Sometimes when I try to view streaming video I get sound but no video.

Can you elaborate the question? I assume that you are looking for some sort of mechanism to validate a customer's web site?
Regardless of the scenario, the way to validate or retrieve a value from an external web site is to write a plugin that executes a WebRequest to the external site and reads the response.

How to Link Published Outlook form in an email?

I created a Service Request feedback form in Outlook 2010 and got it published in Organization Forms Librar. Now anyone in the organization can open th form from the regular way of Choose Forms and selecting this form. My requirement is to have a link of
this form inserted in an automated email.
Scenario: This form is going to be used by users in case their service request is not resolved upto their satisfaction level. We use a ticketing tool in which when the user ticket is closed, user gets an automated email stating that their
ticket is closed. We want to have a link to the form in this automated email which should open the form stored in the Organization forms library so that thy can fill their feedback and send the form to a common mailbox. The form is working fine when used
directly. We are not getting a way how to put a link to the form in the email.
Can you please guide how can we have the link to form inserted in email? We tried to Run the option
Outlook.exe /c "IPM.Note.Service Request Feedback Form and this works fine but is there a way to put this above line of code (in bold) in email so that user can click on it and it opens the form directly for them. Hyperlink etc does not
work.

No, you can't as the <a> tag in the HTML specification doesn't account for command like switches.
Another way to go would be to use a web based form on your intranet/extranet which they can fill out and generates an email or database record with the feedback of that user.
