Decrement, then reformat the date entered

I have a PDF form which needs to have read-ve dates filled after entering the last date in the pay period, like this:

Field name > "Period Ending" > the user enters "15/04/2016" (this is the date on Friday)

He now has fields AutoFill for LUNS, Mar, sea, Fri.   And these fields must be in the format 4/11, 4/12, 4/13, 4/14, 5/15

I tried to copy the period ending the field for the field 'Fri' and change the date format, but I get an error in format.

I guess there is a way to get the date from the entry field and subtract just 1,2,3,4 for other dates, which is how I would do it in Excel. Can't find a simple way to do it in Acrobat.

You can learn a little more about how Javascript is used in the environment PDF. The only resource I know that deals only with JavaScript and Acrobat is this Book: Beginning JavaScript for Adobe Acrobat

There are different ways you can do this math. What I like to do is to consolidate all the calculations in the script of a calculation, which I then store as a function of document level and then call only hidden and read only field in the form.

You can also adjust the script slightly and use it as the custom for the domain calculation script 'Friday '; Replace the line that assigns the value to the field "Friday" with this:

event.value = util.printd("mm/dd", theDate);

  • PDF does not print the data entered in the form fillable

    I created an editable pdf that I want to use to fill out a form, save in their own car, change it again, then print it and send it in.

  • Text field required from the data entered in a previous field

    Good afternoon

    I'm trying to implement a requirement such that if the data entered in A text field then the field of text B is necessary. The research on the forum I did, I think I need to use the change event. But the only entries members I've seen involve drop downs or boxes option and I don't know how to translate in to whether or not data is entered in a text field. Thanks in advance!

  • How can I apply the automatic spelling correction for selected fields from the data entered by the users of forms?

    I would like to be able to apply the spelling correction of selected fields in the forms I created using LiveCycle Designer 8.2 at runtime, as opposed at design time.  I understand that version 8 LCD has a spelling corrector new OWL for form designers.  But I want to say check the data entered by users using Acrobat Reader.  And I want to apply the spelling correction automatically on only selected fields.

    Currently it seems that fill out my forms, users must know how manually right-click on each field, and then select "Spell Check" from the dialog box to check spelling mistakes in the data that the user entered into the form.

    I would like to discover a way to apply the correction spelling in certain areas, as well as I am able to do in forms created using Acrobat Pro.  Acrobat Pro, I can set a property for each field to require the spell check.  but this feature seems to be missing in Livecycle Designer.

    I have check the object model for XFA forms hoping I could find a method I can call a JavaScript file, check the spelling based on an event such as onBlur.  But I have not found a method of spelling.

    Am I missing something simple?  Is there a way to define each field out controls when a user is filling out the form using the free software Acrobat Reader?

    Our users are not sophisticated and forcing spell check each field separately just doesn't cut it...

    Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Hi David,

    Two things...

    At design time has set the locale of the form to that coming out Acrobat checks. For example the locale English (United States) and English (United Kingdom) have Spellers; However the English (Ireland) does not work. Check the warnings tab to see if the spell checking is supported for your locale.

    If your locale form supports spell checking, so you can go to the script of the button below.

    If you form local does NOT support spell checking, Stephanie has a great work-around to force spell (http://forums.adobe.com/message/2233945#2233945).

    Put a normal button on the form and in the click event must have the following:

    app.execMenuItem ("spelling: spell check");

    Which will open the checker spelling for all fields.  Thanks to Paul for extract all elements of menu available (http://forums.adobe.com/message/1912914#1912914).

    Good luck

    If you are referring to record and send after filling out a form, you can either use an Adobe Reader or Acrobat application.

    Adobe Reader is a free service and you can install it here: Adobe - Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Distribution

  • form created in the ES4 will not save the data entered in acrobat readerXI

    I created a big form in Live Cycle Designer ES4. If I save the form in pdf format and open it in Acrobat Reader XI I get the message that I can't save the data entered in the form only print it. All I want to do is to put the form on our web site for people to download, fill out, save, and send it to me. I consider another method that is if I distribute the form and take the distributed pdf and save it locally, when it is open in the player you get the Send button on the purple bar on the right side. This will confuse many of our users, so if there's a way to not have the submit button so that work, but how do I stop the send on the purple bar button?

    You must activate the reader of the form. You can do this in Acrobat 11 open the form in Acrobat and select: file > save as other > Reader Extended PDF > activate tools more

    11 reader can save non-active AcroForms (created in Acrobat Forms), but not the forms enabled for the XFA (forms created in LiveCycle Designer).

  • Error 0x80040E57 then store the date and time to the database

    Hello

    I'm using Labview 2009 for storing the date & time of microsoft database but I get an error (0x80040E57), which specifies that the field is too small to accept the amount of data, I'm trying to enter. A screenshot of the error message and the VI is put in an attachment. Please suggest a solution for this.

    Thank you

    Guilhem

    Hi Marion,.

    I looked a bit in question and found that the error occurs when one of your columns of database is too small to contain the data that you are trying to (see page 236 of this PDF). The data initially a problem is going to be one of the strings that you are trying to insert. I guess you circled in red is the origin of the problem.

    I found a client who had a very similar problem. Here's how, he said, he has solved this problem:

    I found the problem. The problem that you said was in the database. The "Date" column in the database table has been specified to enter 9 characters only. So when I ran the program on 12/02/2011 it ran for a week until 2011-12-09 23:59. So 2 to December 9, the total for the date format characters were 9 (if you add them) but as soon as the date changed to 12/10/2011 at 12:00 midnight the total number of characters were 10 (more than 9) and that's why he stopped at 23:59 on 09/12/2011. I changed the number of characters to 10 now and its working very well.

    Then you can check your database to make sure that it is large enough to accept this entry.

    I hope this helps.

  • Automatically seized of the data entered by the user in a database?

    Hello

    I do an application in which the user enters an item of data as information, but I need to be added directly in the tables in the application database. Is it possible to do? If so, how? The program would automatically put the data in the table and use SQL statements to add, modify, etc., so that the user would not have to do something with it? I'm just a beginner in programming, I would really appreciate the answers to be simpler than usual.

  • Read file, reformat the data, write new file

    Oracle 11g PL/SQL.

    I have a need to read an existing file, reformat the drive and write to a new file format.

    My solution has been to read the file using utl_file and store it in an array of procedure1.  There is a column of data to hold 1000 bytes of data for each line of the file.

    Then in procedure2, read the data through a cursor column, with a certain logic and fill in the fields of a record type object by using the function substr on the data column.  The type of record object has about 80 columns, all TANK types.  The OUT of procedure2 parameter would be the type of record object.

    Then in procedure3, record object would be the parameter, and this recording would be used to write the new line of the file.  The problem I see now is that I can't convert the object record type a TANK in order to write the file.  So that would mean that I have to reference each of the 80 columns once again in procedure 3 and concatenate each for the parameter buffer utl_file.put_file.

    I don't want to assign values for columns of 80 exit more than once because that makes the code very long and detailed, so I thought that I assign values to the time in the record object, then pass the record object to the write file procedure.

    I'm looking for suggestions on a better design, or have I missed some very basic code design?

    Thank you.

    Thanks for all the great suggestions.

    The original file is from a COBOL program.  What I ended up doing was reference and readability, I have defined/filled all fields of provision of COBOL in my program and then concatenated fields during the construction of the output string.  It's a bit verbose, since the 80s fields appear twice, but the code is clear and easy to understand for support purposes.

    Thanks again for all the thoughtful suggestions.

  • Is it possible with javascript to compile the data entered by the user in an easy format to excel?

    I have a form in which the user enters several lines of data as well as additional information on these data.  I would like finally to export data, so I can manipulate the Excel.  This is possible because javascript (or otherwise)?  Here is an example of what I mean.

    The form of a table in which the user enters each of the names of his friend, their favorite color and their age.  I want the name of the specific friend linked to their favorite color and age so when I export to excel I can see how many friends has the user whose favorite color is red.

    If the form data would be as follows:

    Friend1name

    Friend2name

    Friend3name

    Friend1color

    Friend2color

    Friend3color

    Friend1age

    Friend2age

    Friend3age

    When I export the data as entered above, the results of each field in another column.

    Anyone has any ideas for that?

    It is possible with JavaScript. You can write the data to the JavaScript console and then copy & paste into Excel, or write to a file as an attachment (aka data object) and export it. Here's a sample script that writes the field data in the JavaScript console:

    Table of domain names

    Invoke the var = ['Friend1name', 'Friend2name', 'Friend3name', 'Friend1color', 'Friend2color', 'Friend3color', 'Friend1age', 'Friend2age', 'Friend3age'];

    Browse the fields and write the field values in the console

    for (var i = 0; i)< afields.length;="" i="" +="1)">

    Console.println (getField(aFields[i]).valueAsString);

    }

    Display console

    Console.Show ();

    You can place this code in the mouse event to the top of a button and click the button to run it. This last line of code displays the console and you will be able to copy & paste the data.

  • dreaded default zero in calculated field - how to remove so that the data entered

    I'm not experienced with scripting in LiveCycle Designer ES2.

    That's what my PDF form looks like when it is opened by the user:

    Form.PNG

    But, I don't want the default $ 0.00 because some users can print the form and manually enter all areas. I want it to be empty, until the data is added in one of the hourly rate or the Total number of hours of the contract.

    Capture.PNG

    It comes to the design of form with tab linking objects (and as Name() use data binding to):

    TtlHrs

    HrlyRate

    VacRate (this is a protected field to set the value by default. 04; as 4% on the form when it is opened)

    It is the simple calculation in FormCalc for the TOTAL field:

    TtlHrs * HrlyRate + (TtlHrs * HrlyRate * VacRate) which gives the default value of 0 in the form.

    I want to write a script that will delete the 0 until data is entered in one of the first two fields. I tried using the code suggested in other posts, but it does not work - just keep getting syntax errors.

    If you reply, please indicate whether your script is for the event to Java or FormCalc claculate.

    Your calculation in formcalc should be something like:

    If (TtlHrs.isNull == 0 and HrlyRate.isNull == 0) then

    $ = TtlHrs * HrlyRate + (TtlHrs * HrlyRate * VacRate)

    else $ = «»

    endif

    Try to customize this code:

    (- 2) replace str - the string to be replaced.
    (--3) replace with - the replacement string.

    FUNCTION replaceClob)

    replaceWith IN VARCHAR2)
    RETURN CLOB IS

    vBuffer VARCHAR2 (32767).

    IF vBuffer IS NOT NULL THEN
    -replace the text
    vBuffer: = replace (vBuffer, replaceStr, replaceWith);
    -write it in the new clob
    DBMS_LOB. WriteAppend (newClob, LENGTH (vBuffer), vBuffer);

    END LOOP;

    RETURN newClob;
    EXCEPTION

    Generally, you need to replace % _: _: _ % _: _: _ | Chr (10) | %

  • Save the data on the button and then save the data on a spreadsheet on another key.

    Hello

    I am a new user of Labview. I'm developing a Labview 7.1 program that will record data on the keys. Another button, he must stop recording, and then open a file dialog box to save the data stored on a worksheet. I read in this forum that I have run several loops in parallel but unfortunately I can't see the examples because I use an older version of Labview. I tried to do to pass the data in a table, once recording is started, and then I carry the data to write a function that spreadsheet inside an another case statement. However, once I put the writing on the spreadsheet for the case statement he cannot write. I tried to put out the statement box but it save only a single set of data. Sorry if I am not clear with my explanation. It will be greatly appreciated if someone can give me some advice on this.

    Thanks in advance for your information.

    See you soon,.

    You want to build a table of data.
    If the Boolean value is true, you will add a data point in the table.

    If it's wrong, you do not add anything, and the loop will be re-iterate.

    In the example below, the same code appears twice.

    Half top shows the case of 'Real' and the bottom half shows the case of 'false '.

  • Visualization of the data entered

    Hi all

    I wonder what would be the best way to view and perhaps make calculations (full speed for example, to get the distance) of historical data.   I am currently using a lot of LabVIEW applications during the trials that generates a large amount of data.  Currently, we are writing these data on a line CAN.  An external SOMAT EDAQ then captures these data and we use Infield to look at our data and print graphs and so on.

    Now I think that National Instruments must have its own display of historical data and printing of graphics software and thus takes away or develop our own applications with LABVIEW?  Is there any data format, you can write to LabVIEW (LVM or PDM?) and then another National Instruments software which is easy to use for data visualization?

    Thanks & best regards,

    Lieven

    Hi LievenD,

    If you want to display the TDMS files (which I recommend), you have two options:

    (1) make a LabVIEW program.  However, it is very trivial.  I have attached a VI that retrieves data in two different ways, and as you can see there are only four functions.

    (2) you can see all the data in Microsoft Excel using this add-on: TDM Excel Add - In for Microsoft Excel Download
