Specifying Your Form Name and Title

When you access the Form Wizard dialog, the first sheet enables you to specify a name and title for your form.

To specify your form name and title

  1. Specify the name for your form in the Form Name text box.

    You must specify a name for your form. Forms cannot have the same name as another form or global object (for example, the application name or a predefined JADE class).

    The form name must start with a character and have a maximum length of 60 characters. It can include numbers and underscore characters but it cannot include punctuation or spaces.

    Forms are defined in the JADE database as classes. If you specify the first character of the name as a lowercase character, it is converted to an uppercase character.

  2. Specify the title for your form in the Title Name text box, if required.

    If you do not specify a title for your form, a title is automatically generated, based on your specified form name.

    The form title defaults to the form name, with a space inserted before each capital letter. For example, if you specify a form name of CustomerMaintenance and do not specify a title, it is generated with a form title of Customer Maintenance.
