Thanks Joe!
That should work fine. I appreciate the quick response!
I wonder if you can answer a question that I have about Form Builder forms. This is the reason I'm considering making it an external form:
It seems that as soon as the Form Builder form page is loaded in a browser, the new record with submission ID, submission date, modified date, and IP is created. If the form is submitted, it seems to update the record and changes the value of the is_finalized field from no to yes.
If the form is never submitted, do those "mostly blank" records remain in the database? The problem I'm having with this is my specific use of the form. I'm using it to feed new accounts into an LDAP directory. The synchronization script is not happy that certain fields don't have a value.
I'm assuming that if I go to an external form, then the record is only created when the form with the full data is submitted. Is that correct? Should I also build is_finalized and the other "standard" fields into my external form?
Thanks again for your help!
