| Hi there, Is there a way I can open a form through a button on a form?
I have a workflow with about 15 forms, and in the end I would like te be able to give users the possibility to consult data gathered in previous forms. I would like to make a form with this data (read only) that can be consulted by the users easily, throughout the process, by clicking a button. Is this possible?
Thank you,
SD |

| The information in a forms can be retrieved using the XML variable created for that form (SFFormData). By updating the xml variable, you can display the information captured from previous forms in another form.
As for as "ReadOnly form" is considered, when you add any control to form, you can set the "ReadOnly" property of the control to true.

| Yes, I know that, and I used this in designing the workflow.
I have some forms with about 50 controls, and in the end of the workflow, users will just add 1 or 2 fields. What I would like to do is show some 10 fields in the standard form, and if they want to see more, give them the possibility of clicking on a button to open another form to consult the other 40 fields. Is that possible?
thank you |

| Hi, By default ,there is no option to open form on click of a button. However , using a Hyperlink Control , you can popup an aspx page which has another form rendered in it. Or as a workaround, 1. You can create form with Tabs and add the form fields inside the tabs and based on some condition can show or hide all the controls inside a tab. 2. Add form fields inside panels and based on some condition set the panel visibility.
