Hi Mike,

Yeah, I'm on ECC, BASIS_700, but we aren't using ADS yet. Maybe in a few 
weeks :-)
Meanwhile, thanks for the idea.

regard,
chris

Re: Editable Attachment

Hi Chris,
You can restrict Florin's great suggestion by using a non-delegated subtye
specific to your workflow.
Another thought: What version are you on? On ECC, this is exactly the type
of scenario that Adobe document services is suited for. Your form is a PDF
with editable fields, and those fields can later be read as data. Will be
more work to set up for the first time but may bw worth looking into.
Cheers,
Mike
