    Dynamic Changes to the Form

    Hi Guys, I'm trying to build a simple but dynamic form where user will be able to fill the forms and submit. Creating the form and publishing is simple - no problem with that. Let say user fills out Test Form - But i want an administrator to modify this Test Form (add,delete or select certain fields/data) using another form (instead of design this form option) which will then form a new Test Form for the users to fill out. I sound confusing but let me know if anyone understands or feels its "do-able".

    So what you are looking for is a way to build a dynamic form? It is possible to have a form design such that it pulls in a secondary data source (another xml file, etc) and constructs itself based on that. A valid example of this is a survey form. There would be the form that users open to fill out the survey, and the one that the admin uses to create the XML source file for the survey.

    It sounds like you want to do something similar to this. It is possible, and has been done before, it just takes careful consideration of design to make it happen.

    Sorry, it's not available to the public. Qdabra Software was contracted to build it for a paying customer.

    The point, however, is that is is possible to do. It just takes some thought and planning, as well as some trial and error.
