hi Les

Thanks for your time.

Sorry I should have made clear that this is an offline scenario - mobile workers using laptops which have intermittent connectivity to the SAP system. What they do have is SAP Mobile running locally on their laptop which has the data needed for pre-populating the form, so I was looking for a solution where the user could click a button within a piece of work in SAP Mobile which would then launch a pdf pre-populated with details of the work from SAP Mobile.

The PDF would then be saved locally and synchronised with the back-end R3 system when the laptop is back on line.

I suppose a possible alternative approach would be to generate & pre-populate the forms at the SAP back end at the same time as the SAP work is being marshalled for sending to SAP Mobile on the laptop, then there would be a library of pre-populated forms on the laptop & the user would have to select the one which related to their current job? This just seems a bit clunkier for the user...

Thanks for any additional advice you may be able to provide.
