Can I pre-fill forms from an excel worksheet

I'm looking for an alternative to the names typing or by copying and pasting on the forms that I distribute to its clients. I wonder if there is a way I can link an excel sheet calculation or data of a document export to pre-fill on each form. Something similar to a mailing of a certain type.

Thank you!

Probably the best way to proceed is to import the data into Acrobat from a file delimited by tabs that you export from Excel. The first line must contain the exact field names and the following lines contain one or more records. When you import, you will be able to select a row of data, and it will then be used to complete the form. The workflow is:

1. start by setting up a worksheet to include the PDF form field names as the first line.

2. fill the worksheet with one or more records.

3. save the worksheet in a text tab-deliimited file.

4. open the form in Acrobat

5 import a row of the data form, the text file. For example, tools > forms > more shape Options > import data > [select text file] > [select row]

  • Hello! Pre-filled form questions

    Hello!

    I'm very new to using Adobe and I try to do a pre-filled form interactive adobe. I have the boxes communicate/calculate the each other.

    For example, I have a Fahrenheit box which offers a Celsius area that computes the response at the entrance in the Fahrenheit box. The problem I have is when Fahrenheit is not applicable in certain uses of the shape, the Celsius box always responds to-17, 80 ° which is equal to 0 ° F, which is in the form is the answer because nothing has been typed. I need the box does not calculate when is not a response to enter.

    Can someone let me know the best solution for my problem?

    First of all, stop thinking about it. What is the numerical value of a string NULL or mull?

    Many programs treat as zero. And that's exactly what JavaScript if left to itself.

    Fortunately, most computer languages and scripting languages have instructions conditional and properties, statements or methods that make the difference between a null and zero string. This type of coding will require that a custom JavaScript coding.

    I guess that you do not want to delete any results.

    For the Celsius box (text field), you must create a custom JavaScript that uses the conditional "if" statement to test whether the Fahrenheit entry field is an empty string and not zero.

    / default null result Celsius sring.

    Event.Value = "";

    get the object field for Fahrenheit on the ground;

    var oFahrenheit = this.getField ("Fahrenheit");

    test if string field value is zero;

    If (oFahrenheit.valueAsString! = "")

    {

    conversion of calculation only if the value of Fahrenheit not null;

    Event.Value = (oFahrenheit.value - 32) * 5 / 9;

    } / / end of non-null value;

  • Pre-fill form non-hosted Eloqua entries

    Hi all

    I had some difficulty trying to get my landing page not hosted Eloqua to pre-fill with URL parameter values (which I spent an introductory email) in the form of embedded Eloqua.

    I tried the Javascript code that would normally work on the "regular" forms, but I think that since the form in a snippet Eloqua, apparently in error.

    I tried to access entries of form as such:

    document. Forms ["PotentialCustomer"] .field0. Value = "my default";

    Where PotentialCustomer is of the form name and Champ0 is the first input text.  I actually tried other methods of code, but they all fail - it's like I can't access to the Eloqua form until after the page has value.

    The error I encounter in the browser console, is:

    TypeError: document.forms.PotentialCustomer.field0 is not defined

    Yet, when debugging, I can plug a value here and it will BE popluate in the form.  Any ideas?

    Hey, Geoffrey.

    It looks like you can run this code before the form HTML has been charged. Is the code called on the document ready event or if it just appears between the script tags in the HEAD section?

    I would recommend loading the jQuery library and ready to determine when the document is finished loading and then fill your form field value using. Discover this violin for an example: change fiddle - JSFiddle

    Hi friends,

    Im having a table has with the following columns as

    < Li > Employee_name
    < Li > Department

    with empty data in it.

    Im having an excel sheet that contains the data for the table has for the column ID < Employee_name < Department

    If it is possible to import excel data sheet empty table A that I have in the DB using a form of front-end APEX which is having a file navigation item only.

    So, if I store that excel sheet using a navigation button in table wwv_flows_files, then automatically all means this sheet file data in the excellent flows_files table must be inserted into the table empty i have.

    It is possible to store the data this way using a browse.

    If you're on APEX 4.1 create data loading page. Then the end user may download the CSV data to your table.

  • Pre-fill the form Registration (Buy)

    I think I'll be really really stupid, but I tried the tips on http://KB.worldsecuresystems.com/654/bc_654.html?BC-partner to allow registered customers to connect just after adding items to their cart without the need to re - register or fill in their details, and I can't seem to do.  I think I'll use method 1, but here are my problems.

    Problem 1:

    Where can I add the {module_FirstName}, etc available registration (Buy)?  Everywhere where I tried, is not displayed and disappears when I go back to HTML or is off the beaten path.

    Problem 2:

    Will the button automatically direct connection of the user to the pre-filled form?

    Does anyone know of a very good (and I think I need simple) way to do this please?

    In addition, while I ask me questions, when I add the payment gateway, these details will automatically fill their form as well.  I use SagePay I think.

    Thank you very much for your help

    Hi Lisa,

    (1) all you need to do is to place the module within the field tag.

    (2) insert generic login area in the record buy arrangement.  This will simply refresh the page once the client connects.  No redirect is necessary.

    I hope this helps!

  • How to pre-fill the ADF form with the data?

    Hi guys,.

    I was wondering how you go about the generation of a pre-filled form of ADF. Is this something that is done if the designer of the ADF and the business objects? or do you create database tables stay and bind in the ADF and the workflow. Specifically, I want that if a user is presented with a several drop-down lists when the human task of the initiator is executed.

    Thank you
    Ross

    Hi Ross
    1. Yes, in all first place in the database, we added all the data manually for all research. Its our own schema custom. We plan to provide a few simple administration screens in a different WebApps to maintain these values to search. Note that it is a different simple ADF application, with a layer of EJB and EJB layer calling this and get/update database values.

    2. in ADDITION, we have a few search values we get from system/application totally another as Oracle EBS Suite. To do this, we have created custom schema. In this custom scheme, we have a few stored procedures created by the developers of EBS database (they are more familiar with EBS). Now in our EJB layer, we use architecture JPA, call these stored procedures and get all values for the search and display in the TaskDetails page. These values are maintained in EBS itself, so we have not all custom within our SOA/BPM project admin screens.

    In conclusion, our SOA/BPM applications, we have 2 databases. First database is for components SOA where we run RCU comand and there all SOA_INFRA, MDS, diagrams ORABAM etc. The second database is for our custom schema specific to our application. Here, we have our own lookup tables, custom table and all cutom stored procedures than coonect to external EBS etc. Weblogic console, we have just to create a data source for this second database and use layer JPA (persistence.xml file). For the first database, you already know that in the creation of the field itself, it will create all sources of data also.

    Thank you

  • Can I change a Muse form so that it will pre-fill a PayPal transaction?

    I need to include a way for people to make donations on the website I created. I don't know how to use the PayPal widget to add a "donate" button, but I need more than that. I want to have a form that people fill out on MY WEB site, and then when they click on the "donate" button it should bring to PayPal where the info what they entered is already entered in the form of PayPal.

    PayPal provides instructions on how to edit the html code of a form so that the correct variables will be collected by PayPal... However, I'm not sure if there is a way to do what I do without creating a form from scratch in html and then import to Muse in this way (via object > insert HTML code...) I don't want to create the form from scratch if I can avoid it, just because I'm not well versed in the html code.

    Thanks for your suggestions, you can offer.

  • Create a PDF form that fills an Excel worksheet?

    Hello, I have basic experience with InDesign and you want to do something a little intimidating (not sure if it is still possible).

    I'm coordinates a scholarship competition where people fill out a form and I want that data to fill an Excel worksheet. I also have these forms available so I need a way to "lock" the process of edition form.

    I want to my form layout in InDesign and give him a few data fields (e.g., name, contact information, etc.) and radio buttons (for example what price category would you like to participate). There are some fields of data (for example, to provide information on your presentation) that I didn't need to fill my Excel spreadsheet.

    The Excel worksheet will simply be used for administrative purposes (for example, hold how many people is competing in a specific category).

    Is this possible? Tutorials online that people can direct me to? Thank you!

    Yoou can create the form in the ID and then export to PDF and Acrobat allows you to convert it to a form and 'publish '. You have several options on how retrieve you the data from the published form and one is designed to allow you to fill out a worksheet, I think, but it's really a matter of Acrobat. How large will the distribution? A standard Acrobat license allows only 500 returns.

    Using the cookie can still cause the pre-population of the returning visitors who are browsing organically.

    We have implemented a step name on some forms in 2010 in an engagement with a simple javascript function that has entered the URL, deleted the elq querystring, and then set the location.href to this URL.

    It is a block of starting point below. It removes all querystrings so if you want to keep the campaign id or drive the source of the e-mail, you must add those in the new URL.

    function reload() {}

    var url = window.location.protocol + ' / /' + window.location.host + window.location.pathname;

  • Update the form of CSV courses and also to pre-fill adapter

    Hello

    I'm trying to provide a resource using the IOM API, which I am able to do successfully, but I also have a requirement to update the shape of a CSV file process. When I try to read and update CSV, it cancels the values populated pre-fill adapters even when they are not provided by the WB.

    Here's the logic I used:

    (1) read the CSV data
    (2) user of MSN search
    (3) resources available
    (4) treat the value form data after reading process values form a CSV.

    As soon as the data of the form process set the task runs, it updates the other fields (i.e. which are not provided by CSV) with a null value.

    Please let me know if there is another way that I can put a few of the fields in the CSV process form without destroying the remaining values.

    Thank you

    (3) formInstanceIntf to set processes form data by using setProcessFormData (proInstKey, map)

    I hope that you send only a few attributes in your card, not all of the attribute (attributes that were part of prepopulate).

    If so, it should not happen.

    Workaround solution:

    You have processInstanceKey
    Retrieve existing data in the form getProcessFormData
    Make a card with existing fields and values and add your new fields and their values, and call setProcessFormData

  • Pre-fill the form button fields

    Hi guys,.

    After little help! I have created a web form for a company to use for travel. It has specific fields for location, accommodation and date of travel.

    I would like to know the best way to pre fill these fields if someone clicks on through a list of availability on a page of the accommodation?

    For example, if there is a link "Book now" on 11/17/2012 at the hotel of new in France, how I would make only if someone clicks on 'Book now' they then go to a form where they can fill in their details relevant information pre-filled for the date, they chose.

    for example:

    Name: (empty, to enter)

    Address: (empty, to enter)

    Phone: (empty, to enter)

    E-mail: (empty, to enter)

    Date: 17 November 2012

    Country: France

    Accommodation: Hotel new

    Nights: (empty, to enter)

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

    S

    All you have to do is have parameters in the URL and fill them according to the options.

    So... nextpage.html? country = & date =.

    And with jQuery that populate these settings on hover/click/change etc.

    Just make sure that they have values before going to the next page.

    On the next page all you do is use module_url.

    So for an entry for the country field you get the value {module_url, country} where the country is the parameter in the URL and the system will fetch its value.

    So the last part is simple, simply to get the url parameters defined when you click on through the following page.

    If it's a form, just add at the end of the action of the form.

  • Is it possible to create a form that allows users to import data from an excel spreadsheet

    I was not able to start my reading on writing scripts or other features of livecycle to try to understand this, but I was wondering if anyone else had already created a form with this feature or had any ideas on how it would be possible.  Currently, our company uses and Excel form that have a variable number of rows of data for each time it is filled and we it would be replaced with a form of adobe.  I would like to know if users who will use the new form in adobe reader adobe, might have the ability to imort lines of the previous form of excel in the new version of adobe.

    Hello

    You can configure a data connection with an Excel spreadsheet. However, for the data connection caring for users of Reader, you need to activate Reader with LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES2.5 (server component) form. See here for the summary: http://assure.ly/etkFNU.

    However, if you just try to get existing data into shape, you should have a look at some of the posts by Stefan Cameron: http://forms.stefcameron.com/ (try a search). You can start a new form by using the wizzard and select import into Excel. This will allow you to paste your spreadsheet to a new form. This should help to put in place the structure/data schema, which you can then reproduce in a new form. I've not done this before, but it should be possible.

    Hope that helps,
