Self referencing tables
I need to have a form that includes a dropdown lookup that references itself. For example a form called 'COMPANIES' where there is a field called 'PARENT COMPANY' that allows you to select from the records already entered in 'COMPANIES'. This doesn't seem to be possible - is there a way to do it?

convert list or Map to JSON string
Is there a built in function to take a Map list and format the list into an appropriately structured JSON string? If not, is anyone familiar with deluge code snippet that would perform this function?

Email From Field - How to set it to a specific email address?
Zoho Creator will not let you set the From field in an email sent by the sendmail function unless it is zoho.usernameid or zoho.adminuserid. I believe this has been setup to stop spammers from using Zoho Creator. We do however have a ligitimate requirement to have the From email to be set up as a specific email address. The only way I can work out how to get around this issue if for me as the admin to change my email address to the email we want to use in the From field. This will not work as a solution,

"Add record" to form does fill in its subforms
Good Morning Zoho! I have a main form with 3 subforms. I've managed (thanks Damien!) to auto-fill a few fields in the subforms based on entries on the main form. BUT- When I add an entry to the main form using "add record" on an "On Success" of a third form (hope I'm clear on this) - the subforms are not filled in - even though on the main form their default entries are set for "1" so at least one entry should be added.... Another thing - even a field in the main form that should be filled based
Script link subform back to form prior to saving record
Hi, I have a form with a subform, linked via bidirectional lookup so I can see or modify the associated ID's. i.e. The Form is for each Contact, with a Subform listing Phone Numbers associated with that Contact. Each Phone Number has a field showing the ID(s) of the Contact(s) associated with that phone number, so I can lookup both ways. This works fine. Now, I want to create a new Contact, and script to add a link back to a default Phone Number (i.e. all colleagues in the office have at least by
Not an expert
In my mind I have an idea of what I want to create, but it is difficult to achieve it with the tutorials and the resources you give. In my opinion they are not easy enough for the common person like me. I think language in my country can be an issue. Even if you speak English as a second language, the computer language is a barrier. I think Spanish speaking people could get a lot more of your products if there were tutorials in Spanish and/or videos on how to create more simple apps. I think Zoho
Set variable for a subform does not work?
Hi Zoho, I have a form with 3 subforms in it. I need the subforms to take values from the main form. When scripting with "set variable" under "on user input", setting the variable for one of the subforms' value (Subform.ValueToUpdate) , when trying to submit the form I get an error "unable to execute update record task". Off course, when loading the form the subforms are all empty. How can I fix this? Thanks Ravid

Copy Fields, Forms, Reports, Pages?
Is it possible to duplicate or copy fields, forms, reports, or pages? I can't seem to find this function, and I will admit that for "serious" app development, it seems like a must-have feature. If I would like to create numerous fields with similar properties, making small tweaks to extensive programming, then I have no way to accomplish this. (Likewise, for forms, reports, and pages.) If this functionality does not exist--as it does for essentially every other survey/database tool--then I must
how do I add ddrop down field to a number
Hi, I am trying to use a drop down to select the hour for a scheduling app. I don't want to have 24 values because that is way too many so I want to use an am/pm radio button to create a calculation that will give me a 24 hour clock. There is also a minutes drop down that is included in the calculation so that the final result should say 13:25 when the user puts 1 in the hour, 25 in the minute and selects PM for the radio selection I have an if statement that captures for the am/pm not being checked,
Delete record from html view, possible?
Is there a way one could delete a record from an html view? I currently have a loop that displays a list of records in a table in an html view. I have an edit link to edit particular records. I want to also add an html link that would delete a particular record. Is this possible? To edit a record I use the following: /<%=zoho.adminuser%>/<%=zoho.appname%>/Form_Name/record-edit/Quotes_Report/<%=main_record.ID%> Is there a URL I could use like this for deleting a record? Thanks, Matthew

Hi Zoho, In my reports, if I try to limit the column width using the Column Properties -> Change Column Width under the report settings, if the text in the column is longer than the width I've set the column width is changed to fit the text, instead of wrapping the text inside the column.

Pivot Table / Chart Not Showing Correct Record Count
I've been trying to work out this problem by myself for a while but can't seem to solve it. When I create a basic List report, I can see that the total record count is 2213 (which is correct). Although when I try to visualise this same data as a Pivot Table / Chart, the total record count is only 2000. For some reason the Pivot Table / Chart is not showing records for the last 2 months or so, as I don't have any filters to restrict the data that's being displayed. I've also opened a support ticket
How do I write the value of the autonumber field to a single line data field?
Hi everyone, I'm new to Creator, so please excuse the dumb questions... I have two forms, Person and Cases. Each form has two fields - Name and Client_ID.

Stateless form read only field
Using a stateless form, how can a readonly field be displayed? I'd like users to be able to see a numeric field and a rich text field but not modify them. If I put the information in a Notes field, it can't be modified but it doesn't line up like the rest of the fields. This is for a survey. The numeric field contains the question number and the rich text field contains the question text. Thanks,
Convert JSON to XML for Related List?
Does anyone have a script example of converting a JSON string to an XML that is usable in a Related List custom function? Basically I want to display a list of cases from an external system as a simple table of 4-5 columns, ideally with a link. I can't even get the sample static XML (from the documentation above)to work -- the script editor just won't save it, maybe because of the quotes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
