2 edit form in the same screen

[Anonymous]

Good afternoon,

I am newbie in this matters but designing a small app for the company i work.

I am struggling to get this working though. I have been reading some threads to try to find a solution but don't seem to be doing it correctly.

I have the following situation. I have a screen with two forms , where i want the user to enter new record in both.  This forms are linked to 2 different sharepoint lists

When i tested out with one it works nicely, but as soon as i added the second one i don't seem to estabish connection. 

is there a way to make this work ? I have attached below the screen while working in the app as soon as i run it , it gives me the error no item to display. I am assuming something is not refresh or saying to the form to connect, but any help would be greatly appreciated!

If the two forms are to be filled in everytime the user navigates to that screen, you would just need to put the following in the "OnVisible" property of that screen*:

NewForm(Name_of_form_on_the_left); NewForm(Name_of_form_on_the_right).

*of course you can put the code above in the "OnSelect" property of a button if you'd rather use a button.

Thank you! that sorted it nicely.

I would imagine that submitting I will follow the same rule in the button Onselect "SubmitForm(Form5); SubmitForm(Form4)" ?
