Submit form data

Forms can be designed so that data is submitted automatically. This eliminates unnecessary data entry and associated errors.

Depending on the type of database or 'data destination' that you must submit forms to, you may need additional database client software. The form author or database administrator usually installs and configures this software.

If your template has been configured to allow you to submit data from the form to a specified database, you'll see a Submit button on the Form toolbar in the browser window.

To submit a form

  1. Click Submit on the form toolbar (or press Ctrl + Alt + u) to send the form data to the database.
