Totally New....wondering if this site can do what I need....
I have developed a website for people to share book trailers, using FrontPage. I would like to incorporate a search feature on the site, using data from a spreadsheet. Does anyone know if this is doable? I already have a spreadsheet with all of the details in it. Can I create a database with this information and then create a search feature from it? Does that make any sense? Here's my site: http://booktrailersforall.com
Sendmail without attachment question
Hello, I've ported my license manager application written in Java with the Zoho Creator within minutes (just to try it out and have fun! It's GREAT!). Sadly it's not possible to send attachments, so it's rather useless for me, because when I enter a new customer a small file with the license key is generated and attached to the email (at least in my java version). The only other solution I see instead of an attachment is: After creation of the customer entry create a file in some zoho webspace where

URL Syntax for subform with multiple arguments
I'm trying to define a function similar to the "Add Attendance," except I want to pass two arguments - one for ID (which works fine by itself) and another one for date (which also works fine by itself). When I try to combine them together in one URL statement, I don't receive any error messages when I save or execute the script. However, neither field passes to my form. This is the URL statement I've keyed: openUrl("#Form:Add_Distribution?Transaction_Date?Transaction_ID" + input.date + "" + input.id
Need help creating a Custom Action to execute a function that will change a field value...
Hi, I am trying to create a custom action button for each row in a View that, when clicked, will change a dropdown field called Vehicle Status from it's previous values (for example, "Inventory" and "Ready to Sell") to "On Sale." If you can please show me an example of how this is done without referring me back to the Zoho forums or developer site. I am new to this and will need more explanation than I am getting so far in the available sites. Thanks!
Multiple client Databases

Display records in a form depending upon lookup selection
HI, i've created a form with lookups to another form. I want the user to be able to select an item in the lookup field and depending upon their selection, information is shown to the side of the form fields. For example: User selects Country. If user selects Australia, a message displays to the side of the form which says "Australia has these States..(and then pulls the states by doing a lookup from the States table where the state relates to Australia) Any ideas how I achieve this? Thanks Daryl
Embedded view suddenly not working
I have many html views containing list views embedded as div-tags. I have not touched the code of my app for weeks but suddenly some of these views do not work anymore. What happens is that the criteria is not applied propperly (no records are listed) and the header is shown (despite the tag "zc_Header=false"). Here's an example: <div elName='zc-component' viewLinkName='Player_Entities_Embedded' params='Player_Name=<%=recP.Name%>&zc_RecSelect=true&Player_op=26&zc_Search=true&zc_AddRec=true&zc_DelRec=true&zc_Header=false&zc_Footer=false&zc_DuplRec=false&zc_EditBulkRec=false&zc_Summary=false'>Loading

How to Export App & Database Together and import into another zoho creator account?
I can "Save as Deluge Script" and import the .ds file into the other account, but I can't copy the .ds and database together or import together. I don't want to manually export each view as an .xls and then manually import each view as an .xls for 2 reasons: 1. takes more time than I want. 2. the import feature doesn't work perfectly for certain fields (e.g. date & time) thank you, josh
Add time to date field
I have a date field that I am wanting to take upon user update and add the time to it and put that into a date time field. I keep getting an error when I try this: date = input.runDate + " " + zoho.currenttime.toString(); input.startTime = date.toTime(); input.endTime = input.startTime.addHour(1); It gives me the error unable to convert string to date.

How can I view documents that have been uploaded with the File-upload field?
I've created an Application in Creator, with three "File-upload" fields. Users will be uploading text documents (.doc/.pdf) I'm wondering if there is a way to batch-view the uploaded documents. Is there a tool in the software I can use to batch-download the original documents that were uploaded? Ideally, I'd love to see them as a printable, combined .pdf - is anything like that possible? Thank you, in advance!

How do I create a form that populates some of the fields from another table?
I am trying to gather addresses for all people that will be attending an event. What I want to do is be able to send people that are helping me to an online form. The online form will have the names of people populated in the name fields that it picks from another table where they do not as of yet have their addresses filled in. Then, the person helping me, just fills in the address for that person and submits it. Once it is submitted, their name will no longer show up on the online form. How could
Allow inline field placement
Sometimes it would be nice to have a few fields on the same line such as city, state and zip in a form instead of always having only one field on each line. It would save a lot of space and make the form look better.
use Deluge to limit records
I'm creating a view for a team member who only needs to see the most recent jobs we are working on. I'd like to set a criteria that will limit her view to records that have Estimated Start Dates from today to three months from today. I found a similar question at http://help.zoho.com/portal/en/community/topic/zoho-currentdate-in-url? but there the question-asker wants to use this in a URL I know there is a Zoho-wide variable called zoho.currentdate So in psudo code it is: Estimated_Job_Start_Date
How to hide fields while editing a view
I am working on a database -- I'm creating a custom view for Rayma: http://creator.zoho.com/spcorppm/pm1/#View:Rayma Currently I have it displayed as a grid, which is a little clunky. It would be better if she could edit it from the "list" format -- but when you hit "edit" you see all the fields, not just the ones that are included in her view. Is there a way to limit the field that appear when you hit "edit"? -- Kristy
Would be great to be able to rotate view titles
I have a bunch of views that are basically check boxes -- yes it was done, no it wasn't done. I want to work on them in "grid" but since the titles of the fields are long I have to scroll through pages and pages. I've tried adjusting the width of the fields, but then I can't read what it is. It would be great if I could rotate those labels to landscape, still have the field width autosize and see all of my checkboxes at one go. -- Kristy

Deluge Code 'include file' - containing fields that are common to a number of forms
Is there a tip or a trick that would allow me to set up a number of fields that will be same in a number of forms... For example...suppose I wanted each application to have 2 fields called 'Hidden_Passed_In_Unique_Key' and 'Hidden_Follow_On_URL', then is there a way that I could include the following snippet of Deluge Script in each form that needs to use these fields....I'd like something along the lines of '#include <common_deluge_scripts/hidden_fields.ds> Hidden_Passed_In_Unique_Key

How to show field value after form submission
I need to show a field's value (a formula field) on a page after the form is submitted. I have added it to the Success message, but that only stays on the screen for 1-2 seconds, and it needs to be viewed longer than that. Ideally, I'd love to pass the value to another page, but I don't need it to do that. I just want either a popup screen to appear or the ability to keep the success message up until a button is hit (like OK) or something like that. The twist is that after the success message,
Restrict Form to One Column

searchRecords() in CRM returns Contact List (which is a List()) - how to check for empty list
Hi, I am having some trouble testing for an empty contact list when I use the CRM searchRecords call in Creator...anyone have a suggestion...the problem is the List that is returned always has 1 item in it...even if that item is 'null'. I guess if no CRM record is found matching the search criteria, I would expect there to be no records in the list...here's some code that may explain it... ContactsList = zoho.crm.searchRecords("Contacts", searchString); testContact = map(); testContact

I understood that Zoho Creator support full relational database function by linking forms through look-up field.

Because relationship between A and C, D, E is 1 to 1.
