Question

How to save form automatically as a specific file name in specific location for the field name "address"

I am creating a form that my technicians will be filling out on each of their inspections. I would like to put a Save As button on the form so that when it is completed and clicked it will be saved in read only and saved in their  Dropbox folder with the file name of the address field on the form. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

It's not so simple. You need to place a script on the local machine of each user and you need to know the exact path of the folder in advance.

Thank you, I will get back to you. This is quite lengthy ( for me), it will take me some time to digest this. This is quite new to me. I can place the script on the local machines. I have access to them. I will be back soon, hopefully just to say it works and then ask for help on the next question.
