About the Form Wizard

Use the Form Wizard to create forms. You can create forms that are either completely new or based on an existing form.

To access this wizard, you must first be in Design Mode. To start the wizard once in Design Mode, select Form > Definition > New.

On the first page of the wizard, specify whether you want to create a completely new form (Create new form) or a form based on an existing form (Extend existing form). When you click Next, the page you see next depends on which of these options you have selected.

Form Types

When creating a completely new form, you can create forms of these basic types:

  • MultiView forms
  • Query forms
  • Grid Only forms
  • Detail Only forms
  • Report forms
  • Form Only forms
  • Tile forms
  • Build from Scratch forms
  • Flex forms

When you create a form based on an existing form, the new form is of the same type as the form on which it is based.
