Hi, Can somebody point me in the right direction? I'm trying to create an app that will cut down on the amount of physical paper we have ti\o use in our business. Every customer we have needs to sign several authorization forms twice. One copy for us, one copy for them. Name, address, phone and some other info on EVERY form times 4 forms in duplicate. As a start, If I could get the forms built I have the source as PDF and MS word files) create a screen to capture the customers info, populate the forms, and add a place for the customer to sign with their finger or a stylus, then either save the forms or have the option to email a copy to the customer. This is a lot for me to do as I'm an old school Perl TCL/TK ans some basic C programming. But I'm going to try. Any pointers any of you can give me would be very much appreciated. Thank you!

Hi Nipper.... enterprise, or business apps are very very common and data gathering techniques are a huge part of this. The difficult part is the engineering. Coding is one thing, figuring out all the details about the data, what's collected, where it goes, where it gets stored, is it secure, blah blah, gets complictated. So...you're questions a bit confusing but it sounds like you need a simple HTML form that posts to a simple .PHP file on your website. The HTML file (Custom URL or Custom HTML screen in your buzztouch control panel) serves as the data entry point. It 'posts' the values to your website. The script on your website (.php, .asp, .jsp, .net, etc) handles the data and stores it, emails it, whatever. You'll need two things to do this: The HTML to use as the data entry form, that goes in the mobile app and the website script to process the data, usually written in .PHP but any other server language will work.

Hi Davis, Thanks for the reply and direction. I was contemplating a hosted solution as well, but then I started to get concerned about connectivity. We ca always fallback to paper forms if need be. Thanks again! --Nipper
