Create a Form

Use WSP to create a form for your CA SDM environment.

To create a form

1. Select File, New.

   The New Form dialog appears.

2. Select an Interface and Forms Group for the new form, and whether the form is to be a detail form, list form, or menu bar.
3. Select a factory (or table) for the new form.

Note: Only one detail or list form can exist for each table in a forms group, so edit an existing form (rather than create one) for tables that already have an existing form. If you want to have multiple versions of a form, create one or more form groups to hold the additional versions.

Important! When you create or edit a detail or list form, use the "list_" and "detail_" prefixes" to name the HTMPL file. For example, use "list_test.htmpl" and "detail_test.htmpl." Adding this prefix lets you correctly preview a form. When you save a detail template with a custom name, also manually edit the <PDM_WSP> tag. For example, <PDM_WSP mode=edit preview="test.htmpl+OP=CREATE_NEW" factory=cr>.
