Update Subform on load
I am trying to find a workaround since Zoho has yet to give us a time only field or a way to completely remove the seconds from time. Hopefully someone can provide an assist. I have a main form with start and end date-time fields. I have a subform with one date-time field. When I click "Add New" on my subform, I want it to be populated with the start_time field. This would at least save my user the time of having to put in the date and 00 seconds again.

Disable delete on subform
I have a Form "Invoice" that depending on its status, when loading I disable all fields so they are not editable. The issue is that I have SubForms within that Form. I can disable the fields of the SubForm, however, the red "x" button still shows at the left of each line item allowing the user to delete the entire line item. Is there a way to disable that delete line item button (red "x")? Thanks, OV

Loop through days -- more looping limitation
I need a workaround for Zoho's lack of conventional looping functionality. I have a form that asks for a start and end date. The success function will create a record in another form for each day from the start to the finish. I cannot figure out how to make it loop through and do an insert for each day. If I could do a for-next type of loop, I'd simply do: numDays = days360(startDate,endDate) for ( i=1; i <= numdays; i++ ) { insert into ... blah, blah ... } But Zoho doesn't allow you to

Correct application development workflow
Hi All, I'm newbie here, trying to develop application for my own biz. in my understanding, Zoho Creator is starting up with Forms (which in the back end converted into underlying Tables). I've made some forms, say Customers-Orders-Products. The way I made is by using Single Line field for a field which I know it will be Lookup to other tables. My thinking that I will change that Single Line field with a Lookup later on after I've created the associated Forms. But it turn out wrong. I got confused
