Is there anyone who can help me with the following problem;

I have made a form for my work and several computers can open this form, they al have to put input on that same form and the form is intalled on one disc, but they can al have access to this disc. But i want that only one person can work on the form and that others have to wait until the otherone is finished. In excel is this easy, if one person has opened the sheet a other person can only view and not work in the sheet. Is this also possible for my pdf form?

Hi mozus,

I don't believe that is possible with PDF forms by themselves. You would need another system with that capability where you could place the PDF files used by the group.

Hope this helps,

Hi Dimitri,

I was afraid of that. I think i'll make a button in excel, than they know that the pdf is openend beacause excel give a signal.
Thanks for your help.
