allows you to generate forms automatically based on one or more pre-existing XML schemas. This enables you to quickly create forms that align with your databases, web services, BPM system, and key business applications.

For practical examples of this approach please refer to Creating a Form Connected to your Database.

In general, can be created via two different methods:

By dragging Palette Controls onto the form canvas
By adding controls from a data source

It's very common and easy to create your form by dragging and dropping controls from ' control palette to the form canvas. As you do this automatically creates an XSD description of your form's controls. You can download this XSD from the Forms Home Page. This method is typically used when your forms do not need to integrate with a back end system.

You can mix and match these two approaches of form creation. You can create all the controls in your form from XML schema elements. You can create all the controls in your form from the palette. Or you can create part of the form from schema elements and part from palette controls that have no relation to the elements in your schema.
