Create, be able to print then save a pdf...

Looking at the pdf library but not even sure where to start.

I need to be able to print a card to an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper (and save that pdf, preferably automatically)

The screen is not laid out the same each time. (The position of text boxes may change, etc.)

Is it possible to get the ...

I apolgize. That's just it. There is nothing special going on with scripting.

In development, either program works perfect.


on Mouseup
go card "cardname"
end Mouseup

There is no preopen card script.... (could that be the problem?)
Should I be doing something here?

Numbers or text only in a field?

Is there a simple way to only let a user enter numbers into a text box? (or letters only for that matter?)

In another language I remember where you could mask or set a field to only accept one or the other. Is there something like that in RunRev?

I modified it as this:

on menuPick pItemName

set the wholeMatches to true

local tLineNumber

put 1 into tLineNumber

repeat for each line tLine in field "Field321"

But... With that being said, I don't see exactly how it works...
Could you or someone please tell me how this works?

Delete item in field chosen from dropdown

I've tried several versions of this and I'm stumped. All I'm trying to do is to delete an item in a field that I've chosen from a dropdown menu.

I'm using this:

Code: Select all

on menuPick pItemName
   
    delete pItemName from field "Field321"
   
   end menuPick
