Pendragon Forms consists of three components:
The Forms Manager
is an Access 97/Access 200X database application (Microsoft
Access is not required to use this program) that includes a Form
Designer and some simple tools for viewing, managing and exporting
data.
The Forms Conduit
is a bridge between Forms on your desktop and Forms on you
handheld device, and it runs during each HotSync data transfer.
The Forms Runtime
is a program on the handheld device that runs the Forms.
Designing a custom form couldn't be easier, just use the form
designer to specify the names and types for fields of data you want
to collect. After designing your form, you're just four mouse-clicks
away from having your form design synchronized to your handheld
device. After deployment in the Forms Manager, the new form designs
will added to the handheld during the next HotSync® operation.
On
your handheld, your form can be edited in two modes:
|
In
Field View, each field is displayed on its own screen. This is
ideal for surveys in which each question on the form is to be
answered sequentially. Field view provides more space for
responses and data entry tools. For example, in this mode,
numeric fields have an on-screen numeric keypad. |
 |
In
Record View, you can view and edit eleven fields at once. The
list can be scrolled to see more fields. You can also browse
multiple records using the navigation buttons.
