Clickable links to parent records
it would be great to be able to have the field in a view that is a lookup field to be a clickable link to a view of the parent record that it points to. It would be great to provide this as an option in the views. I found it a very helpful feature in webex office.
What will "Group Sharing" allow?
I did a search of the forms and found quite a few ideas around the sharing module. I'm just looking for a concise description of the "Group Sharing" feature being worked on (ref http://help.creator.zoho.com/Working-on.html) thanks. PS: It might be a good idea to link each "being worked on" feature to a page describing the feature, links to forum posts, and maybe subscription levels etc....beyond the terse listings in the roadmap. This page could become part of the wiki when the feature is released.
Only some of the MS Access tables are being migrated.... Reason?
I am migrating a very small aacdb database from MS Access 2010 but about half the tables are not migrating. Is this a simple fix or should i just start from scratch in Zoho?
Chart accuracy
A chart represents records I have entered. When I delete records the values from those records are still on the chart. Any thoughts? Thanks!
Complete frustration with Zoho Creator
I posted here last week and suddenly started getting Zoho Creator support. That lasted a few days. Unfortunately, each time I talk to someone new and they all have different ideas. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I find it odd that since I have been working with them to TRY to resolve the same issue over and over again they somehow manage to call everyday to ask if we are ready to upgrade to $175/month but they don't call back for days on end to resolve my issues. AGAIN I am having
Creator Reports: How can I sort the x-axis by y-axis value?
I made a simple bar chart to show the total annual spending on travel for each employee. The y-axis is the dollar amount, the x-axis is the staff member. My problem is that I can only sort the x-axis alphabetically. Instead, I would like to sort the employees according to their y-axis value - in other words, from the person who has the highest spending on travel to the person who has least. Am I missing the easy way to do this? I only see the button for sorting alphabetically...
Dynamic link to amend record in a linked table
I have a view with a couple of linked tables displaying collection/delivery addresses for jobs. I would like the collection field and delivery field to display its contents as a link that opens a pop up window to edit the linked record, in the same way that the default "edit" button does for each record in the view. I have created a formula field in my Suppliers/Destinations form which contains the following code to duplicate the text in the collection name field and turn it into a link... "<a href="https://creator.zoho.com/<username>/cross-dock/Create_Suppliers_Destinations/record-edit/View_Suppliers_Destinations/"
Display Data as Custom Web Page
I created a small contact database. I need to provide password-protected, read-only access so that visitors can only see one record per page in summary format. Is there a tutorial that will help me with this project?

"Click to view data" - not for users?
Hi. If I'm logged in a admin, and I view a bar chart, I can click the bar to view a table of that data. But users don't seem to have this feature. Is there a way for users to have this ability? Or just admins? Thx.
How can I append item to multi select list with script?
Let`s say I do have a multi select list containing initially "mike", "tom" (from editing field->enter choices). I would like to append "denise" to the same multi select list by using a script. Below code does not append, it erases mike & tom. Any suggestions? Thanks! on add { on load { multi:ui.add("denise"); }

Disabled fields overriden in Grid view
I have a field set to be disabled on load (add and edit). Using the 'edit' button the field is disabled. However, if I switch the view to grid view, it shows the field enabled, and I can change the settings. I don't want people to be able to edit that field. Is there a way to make grid view respect the disabled field, or to disable grid view?
New Home Page
We are pleased to announce the new version of our Home Page (Dashboard). All GApps users would have already noticed it. This will be available automatically for all new users who will sign up from today. Existing users can also access it directly - http://creator.zoho.com/home - to test drive it.

How do you have users fill out a survey (form) without having access to the Application itself?
I have a number of consultants who visit a site and need to fill out a site assessment created in Creator. I want them to have unique login and passwords and NOT to have access to anything else but the form they are required to fill out (via permalink?). The main issue is that it seems that access to the form via permalink requires them to sign in using the same login as the administrator which could easily give access to the application, not only the form they are required to fill out. Any suggestions?
How to setup a dinamic view in hmtl?

Being a developer
Hello, i am set as a developer on Zoho Creater and i still cant edit the application any ideas? Nihal
I am becoming more and more disappointed with ZOHO
I am currently trying to add new fields to one of the forms in my application. I drag it to the form canvas, type in name and see how it is placed in the form layout. But as soon as I refresh the form design view - the new field is gone! I tried several browsers and they all have this problem. I remember having this same problem half a year ago. I remember reporting this problem (could not find the topic) and I was then told that it is a browser issue. I don't buy it. If that would be a browser issue

Limit Autofilter Lookup results
I have a Current_Tasks view which has an Autofilter for the lookup field Customer in the Clients form. The dropdown list for Customer is getting very long, however, because the autofilter lookup returns every single customer we have ever had in Clients. I have tried adding to the criteria for the Current_Tasks view Customer.Inactive ==false, but that does not affect the autofilter. I have added the Inactive == false to the criteria for the Lookup field on the Tasks form, and this does correctly
Help with printing from Zoho Creator database
I've developed a catalog of resources using Zoho Creator. It's a merger of a "library catalog" and "resource guide." It includes an item, a description, a URL, contact information, and then a number of columns with specific categories/filters. All of this makes for a very long horizontal screen. My problem: When users search and get a set of results, I need them to be able to print those resources in a format that's helpful. Right now, if you print from the browser window (firefox or IE), and if
Help with combining views
I have managed to automatically assign a unique ID number to related records in different forms (using MaxValHolder). Now I need to combine the related records into one view. In other words, I want to view all records with the same ID number in one view. Is this possible? I currently export into Excel and sort by the ID number to stack related records in sequence. It seems too complicated for a fairly simple database function. Thanks in advance for your help.
Suggestion on "Access this application"
Building apps with shared forms/views/sections (as we can play in a same form to show/hide/disable fields) often depend on the logged user/user's group. To see/control the applications according to the user or to arrange layout of forms is not easy when we see all the (hidden) fields : I use another browser to access to the app with the user's login : I can check if all the fields/views/sections are shown as I want to (for this user). For the following users, I have to logout, and log in again and
Grouping Forms/Views in Edit Mode
I have more than 20 Forms/Views in some of my applications, either Real Form or Stateless Form. Even I'm having 54 Views in one of my application, that made me dizzy whenever I have to edit one of them. I wonder that I can group Forms/Views on Edit Mode into several sections (like "Add a New Section" in Settings -> Customize -> Rearrange Links)), so i can easily manage them. Thank you very much!

Zoho Creator - Printing/Exporting Applications/Records
Most of our applications have enough columns that would exceed a standard 8.5x11" piece of paper. When choosing the print option, is there anyway to display records vertically rather than horizontally? It appears as if when you try to print, export to pdf, export to excel, etc the only way data is formatted is horizontally. Is there anyway I can print/export applications/records vertically? Am I missing something? Thanks -AJ
Managing large numbers of users
Dear ZC-team, If I would like to share an application to a large number of users, how do I manage this. The way in which users are allowed access to specific forms, views, reports etc. in ZC is very cumbersome. There is no possibility to automate this in anyway? At first glance, a matrix presentation of users against forms, views etc. with checkboxes to allow rights would seem the first step. I also notice that there is deluge scripting possible to share/unshare stuff, but is that easy to operate?
Not certain whether I should be creating a View or a Form but its not working for me
I have 2 forms in my application. One is for Landlords and the other is for Prospective Tenants and one view emenating from each of them. I am trying to create "something" where I can combine many fields from Current Available Apartments, including Landlord's name, Address, Phone Number, Rent with pertinent info from the Prospective Tenant List when a particular apartment gets rented. On this combined "something" I need to add a few fields like the date it was rented, my broker's fee and my commission

Error when submitting Quick Add from requester login
Made some additions to the Quick Add form and when a requester tries to submit, it gets an error and says to contact the administrator. I am new to this type of software. We are going to be using this as a support system at a high school. We have two IT guys, including me, and about 400 students. Students are "requesters" through google apps EDU. I wouldn't even mind turning quick add off altogether but I can't figure that out either.
List lookup related field can't be displayed in views
I have a view containing a multiselect list referring to some IDs in another form, and I added a "related fields" to display the names in the view instead of IDs. The problem is that this field is always hidden in live mode. I can unhide it, but I can't save the changes and when I refresh the view, the field is hidden again. Note that the case is that not all the other fields are shown in the view, but if I make the view to display all, my field appears. Please test the way in which "related fields"
Any particular reason why saving records is failing all the time

Is 'https' required?
Just yesterday (May 4, 2011) links to Views, which I generated using scripting and form data, began to malfunction and display the view without any CSS. Changing the link structure from 'http' to 'https' seems to have solved the problem. However, I now have to manually update close to 300 records as scripted variables are not set when using Bulk Edit. Did something change? These links worked fine before yesterday. Original Link Structure input.TenantLink = "<a href='http://creator.zoho.com/codyastanley3/alstoninvestments/#View:VwTenants?TenantNameID="
Going Public - Zoho Creator
Back on April 10th I created an account on Zoho in order to use their creator application. Roughly a day or so after that I requested for it to be capable of going public. However, after nearly a month, going public is still "pending". I'm assuming at this point that there must be a glitch of some sort going on, but I had seen a few of the zoho employees (or mods, whatever) fix this issue for fellow users, so i'm asking if someone could PLEASE do the same for us. Thank you in advance!
