There was a problem sending the command to the program omniform

Okay. If the Program Compatibility Assistant says this, it is safe to say IGNORE IT. I'm running desktop architect on a windows 7 machine and I don't care. Neither should the PC. But if performance issues result, you need to nix it. But as you said, same PC. No problems. It's just Microsoft's way of ranting about software it doesn't like.

NO Windows XP program will run on windows 7 and up they are not compatible.

First off, I assume that you know that Omniform is a database program. We use it at my work, and everyone believes that it is just a way of filling out a form and printing it. Everything that is entered is saved in a database (usually hidden) and is then accessbile through the form.

Now that's out of the way. To email a form, you will have to add the actual .ofm file as an attachment, and mail it to your recipient. They will have to also have omniform to open the file.

Your other option is to export the form fields (from the file>export menu in omniform). It'll give you a little hassle about deciding on which fields to export, and how you want them exported (MS excel, dbase, ect). Once you export them, they will be in a matching filetype (ie .xls or whatever you exported them as) format. Add this file as an attachment, and sent it through your mail to your recipient.

I know this all seems like a bit of a pain, but honestly, Omniform is a great program. I've used it for 6 years, and had very few problems with it. Word to the wise, its easier to just attach your .ofm files and send them as email, rather than using the build in "sent to mail recipient" that is built into the omniform program.

Let me know if you have any further questions. This is one program that i've had to take apart, reassemble, build forms, ect for numerous people.

Good Luck

I just installed windows 7 on every computer on my network, and I am only having a problem with one form. I still have an old Windows XP machine and I can access that form from that computer. I don't understand why one form doesnt work but the rest of the omniforms work.

kindly go to program files in c drive and look for the omniform folder in it ,you find the older installed folder ,you copy or bur as desired

thanks and regards

For my Client he needed administrator rights to his account on my companies network. i tried having him as a power user that did not work, he needed administrator rights. once he had those rights, he was able to work in Omniform; even though it said that error i had told you all about when he was a Remote user\user.
