smartform pdf conversion in background

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I've Two questions here

1) I would like to convert PDF file from the form in the Background mode.What are all the parameters that we have to set for the background its working fine.

2) I've the same form in the foreground which will display the preview once its being checked it has to ask for the pop up to get the path to store it as a pdf now its coming fine. I'm getting the dialog box again even if i say no_dialog 'X'

If anybody come across these two issues please reply as soon as possible.

cheers

U can have one parameter for the file name to be stored.

that u can use in the PDF fileformat conversion.

I have used like this.So that i can store the file in any place.
