Hello!

I was wondering if i can save the data of a record to a file when i submit the form. I just want to have the data that have been submited to a file(word maybe) and save it to my filesystem.Is it possible?

Thanks,
Kimos

Hi,

Actually you aren't acurate... My aim is to create a file where it will include tha records of the form and not how to save my data in a database.I know how to do it...

Thanks,

Hi kimos,

You can do that with a Custom Code action using PHP to write the data to the file.

Just search google for how to create word files in PHP, and if that is possible then you can use the code in a custom code action as Bob mentioned.

Hi Kimos,

I think that there was a previous thread with Teldrive(?) about saving to Word files a few weeks ago.
