I need help on a hidden field. It is allowed to be viewed by 3 people. they want to put comments in this field and then print it out. for some reason, they cannot print it because once in edit mode the fields don’t enlarge and it prints with text cut off. they don’t want to print this in edit mode rather in Read mode after they have inserted their comments.
I am trying to think this one out and it came out with this:
sent the form with query ?opendocument once submitted I open from the link once there, i change the query to ?editdocument I login and enter the comments on the hidden field. here is my other issue: now tha the comments are there… i change the query back to ?openDocument mode to print in a nice layout but what happened was is that it reset the form back to the way it was sent, clearning all the comments. Is there a way i can make them view the field in read mode and how can i make them edit the field and then print everything…
it is confusing. i am tensing my neck over this one…
thank you i should try that. the $$Return already had a bunch of formulas that were not even used. wha i am also trying so that all works is to add a condition on the webQuerySave so that in case the doc is new it should send if not it should show another button called save and save the document with the new hidden field comments. then that way they can enter the commens and still print it after reversing to Read Mode.
hope this works. if you have other better ideas. i am glad to read more!!
Hi, i am writing again because I am not good at this.
i added your code and it worked so far but what i really need on top of that if the form is a new doc and is sent, it will save it and send to recepient. if it is not a new doc it will be saved but should come back in read mode to print and still show the hidden field. where and how do i add this if statement. i am guessing in my $$return field but don’t know how.
