Autoskip

Completion can be configured to automatically forward the user to the next data
field once the entry in a particular field is full and valid (a maximum length must be
specified on the field). The keystroke saving achieved by implementing Autoskip can
be considerable.

Data Transformation Using Scripts

As well as being used for field or document-level data validation, scripts can also be

script hooks that can be attached to functions expressed in script:
