Filling Fields
This section describes each type of fillable field in OmniForm, how to fill
it, and how to check spelling. It contains the following topics:
• Fill Text
•Comb
•Check Box
•Circle Text
•Table
• Fill Graphic
• List Fields
• Fields Defined by a Calculation
• Field Validation
These instructions assume that the cursor is already in a field.
The way information is displayed in a field depends on the current form
language selection and object definition. See “International Settings” on
page 5-22 and “Defining Objects” on page 6-16 for detailed information.
Fill Text
Enter characters in a fill text field: letters, numbers, symbols, dates, and
so forth. Fill text fields can contain any sort of textual information.
Comb
Enter characters in a comb field: letters, numbers, or symbols
appropriate to the field. Phone numbers and zip codes are commonly
used comb fields. A comb field consists of individual comb
elements.
Each element can contain a different number of characters.
You do not have to tab from element to element in a comb field. Just type
the required amount of information and OmniForm automatically
moves the cursor to the next element as appropriate.
