Task 2: Create a form to ask about agreement

For this task, you will use Forms Designer to create the form controls that ask users to whether they want top copy text from agreements to the SLA. These form controls, together with the window title, prompt, buttons, and other choices you made in the wizard record, will be displayed to the end user as the screen shown below.

To create a new form for the SLA wizard that asks about agreements, follow these steps:

  1. Start the Forms Designer.
  2. In the Form field, type sla.create.ask.agreements.

    Best Practice: Because the form name must match the subformat display entry exactly, you can copy the subformat display entry in the Usage tab and paste it into the Form field. This will help you to avoid spelling errors.

  3. Click New.
  4. Click No for Forms wizard.
  5. Create the following for this form. When you start to design the new form, make sure the X and Y coordinates are at 0 (zero).
