I'm trying to make a custom list for inquiries, where users will fill in some information such as "Name", "Reason" etc. When they've finished filling in the information and added the item, the administrator will then go through the item, and fill in some new columns that the user hasn't been able to fill in.
I hope you understand me, otherwise you're more than welcome to ask questions!
With SharePoint designer 2007, you can use the SPSecurityTrimmedControl who enable you to show/hide form field (or site action...).
Syntax :
<SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl PermissionsString="ManageLists" runat="server">
WHAT_YOU_WANT_TO_HIDE_HERE
</SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl>
For the PermissionsString, all values HERE
You'll need to use SharePoint Designer. You will create custom new and edit forms. This way when the user fills in the new form, only certain fields will appear. Then when the administrator edits the item using the edit form, they will have access to more fields.
Please see this link for more information.
Try making a copy of the form you wish to edit by copying and pasting to the same folder. Then click on the web part for the form and the code above will highlight . Look for tags IsVisible and change it from "true" to "false". This will hide the default form. Do not delete the original form.
Click on the web part in the design view then press your right arrow. This will move the cursor to right after the web part but still within the web part zone. Go to the Insert menu, select SharePoint Controls then Custom List form. A small dialog window will appear, select the list name from the first drop down, then select the content type from the second drop down. Finally select which form you want to insert, New, Edit or Display. Click OK. The new form will be displayed under the default form, and you will then see all of the fields in order and you can add or remove as you like.
If one did not want to edit the pages, couldn't one use Jquery to hide the fields? I have done this with SPservices. to check the user credentials if you will and then if matched display the hidden fields... all this is done from a web part...just a thought...I actually learned something great today.. great replies.

I have taken over a project from someone who has left the business.
It is a Microsoft PowerApp which provides users with a form interface to upload items into a SharePoint list.
The submit button in the app works and the function is "SubmitForm(formName)"
My question is how does it know which fields to submit into which column in SharePoint?
for instance if I wanted to create a textbox in the form for "First Name" how would I make the powerapp submit the contents of that textbox into firstname field?
--edit removed screenshot--
I think you lack knowledge of powerapps w.r.t sharepoint.
Go through one of the example mentioned in docs of micro soft and you will get idea of how mapping of fields are done.
Your main concern is mapping fields.

If you check your edit form, and click on any of your field/data card you will find settings as below. Here I have created custom column as "NumberColumn" and you can find Data properties same for your field as well.
Basically, I'm using version tracking to list down all edited document. When I see on notes, it's not created as a drop down and it just shows all record.
For example like this website. Provide by #umeli. But I can't seem to get it inside my lotus notes.
Like below this. I have this view inside my lotus notes. It just shows everything.
This is list inside my browser. It has like drop-down when I click, it will show all.
Like this. When I click, it will show all the history of the edited document.
Any advice that I can create a drop-down like in-browser inside my notes? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
Use Domino Designer to edit the No column. You need to select the "Show twistie ..." setting as described here.
Also, you may want to automatically collapse the view entries when the user opens the database. To do that, edit the view properties and select "Collapse all when database is first opened".
I am a newbie in sharepoint/infopath.
I am trying to edit an existing field in sharepoint which seems to be loaded from infopath.
The flow of the program is as follows:
I open a form (which is integrated using infopath) from sharepoint. The form has some multiple choice questions and at the end there is a submit button. After clicking "submit", I am transferred to a list view which displays the "number of correct answers" and "your percentage" columns (I can have multiple attempts and they are displayed in the list).
I am trying to edit the calculations of the percentage. When I open the infopath form, I can see that there is a field called "Your percentage". I displayed the setting and there is no formula.
Where can I edit that field?
Thanks!
Use the button Rule Inspector to check all the rules cotained on the form, the button is located on the data ribbon:
There you can see all the rules, just look up for the one that calculates the percentage.
Hope this helps.
I have been researching this for some time, and have not been able to find a solution. I would just like to have a search bar that when an ID is entered, the search will return all the list items that have that ID.
I'm sure I am leaving out details (as I am a sharepoint novice), but any help would be greatly appreciated.
What you need is not search, but filter.
In the view of you library, follow these steps :
Put the page in edit mode
Add a web part "Text Filter Web Part"
Open its tool pane
Name the filter, "IDFilter" for example, and validate
Still in edit mode, select "Modify shared Web Part" --> "Connections" --> "Send filter values to name of your library"
Choose the field that holds your ID and click "Finish"
That's it. You can now type the ID in the field, and it will dynamically apply a filter on the ID field.
That said, you should post you future questions on http://SharePoint.stackexchange.com. this is a SharePoint dedicated stackexchange site.
I want to use multiple select drop down user control or field control on my page layout and I want to pull list items from list and show it on page layout in Sharepoint.Does anyone is having idea how to achieve this.
Thanks,
PS
In SharePoint Designer, go to:
Insert, SharePoint Controls, DataView
on the DataSource Library panel, choose a list and click "Show Data"
Drag and Drop a few fields from the Data Source Details
go to the Toolbox Tab in the same panel as Data Source Details and choose: "Data View Checkbox List"
Configure as you like
Edit based on your reply
If I understand your reply right, how about you have a Yes/No column(field) in your list named "IsVisible" with a Custom View where only items WHERE IsVisible Equals Yes on the web part and the Administrator will just edit the list and change the value for the Visible field.
