Non-Standard Toolbar List Form

Derek Martin

Good morning everyone, I am working on creating a List Form for my list and
I do not want to use the Standard Toolbar in the New item form. How can I
create just a standard submit button that works?

Thanks!
Derek

Better question - can I write a form that can post into the List without
using the List Form thingy?

What kind of list is this?

For example, is it:

o A SharePoint Team site running on Windows SharePoint
Services?
o An Access database?
o A SQL Server database?
o A comma-separated-values file?

This is a Sharepoint Web Services custom list...all I seem to be able to do
is get a Data View to work with it in a customized way.
Thanks!

Yeah, that's normally what you do: first create a Data View, and then
SharePoint creates the input form automatically.

As far as I know, if you don't like the default input form, you have
to write your own Web Part, using Visual Basic .NET or C# .NET. These
are very similar to ordinary Web User Controls, but there's a special
project type to create them, and you have to specially register them
to the SharePoint server.
