Hi Sagar, You said you "tried" deleting the blank placeholder. Did it delete? Or did you get the error when you tried to delete?
Perform the following SQL query: select name,schemaId from arschema You should not have any entries in the arschema form with a NULL name value. If you do have any entries with a NULL value try the following: 1. BACKUP your database 2. Delete the entry or entries in arschema where the name is NULL 3. Now try and create/modify/delete on any other form Hopefully this will allow you to save/modify other forms..... I hope this helps, Regards, Ryan.

But still i was getting same error. Did you got any solution for issue. Thanks and Regards, Sagar Valse ** Hi David, Can you delete the "placeholder" form? It appears this particular placeholder form is corrupt. As you stated...even placeholder forms require a name. Do you know what imported workflow would have created the placeholder form? As an FYI: Importing shared workflow not owned by the application When you import an application definition file that contains shared workflow not owned by the application, AR System can create a non-functional placeholder form for each external form associated with the shared workflow. This allows developers to modify the shared workflow owned by another application without installing the integrated application on the development server. It also ensures that the complete list of associated forms is preserved with any shared workflow. Placeholder forms are created during application import in these cases: * The import definition contains shared workflow from another application that includes a Push Fields or Set Fields action. In this case, a placeholder is created for the external form used by the Push Fields or Set Fields action. * The server configuration file (ar.cfg or ar.conf) contains the option Create-Workflow-Placeholders: T. In this case, a placeholder form is created for any external form associated with the shared workflow, regardless of the workflow action type. A placeholder form has no fields and can only be deleted. If the actual definition of a placeholder form is imported, it replaces the existing placeholder. In the Forms object list in BMC Remedy Developer Studio, placeholder forms are identified as form type "None". When importing an application definition that contains shared workflow not owned by the application, the workflow object is created if it does not already exist. If the workflow object already exists, only the list of associated forms is updated. If the application that owns the shared workflow object is later imported, the workflow is replaced. If the placeholder form can be deleted then I am hoping at that point you can create/save other forms. Regards, Ryan.

To be able to help we will need the actual message that you are receiving, including error number, and if you could also turn on SQL Logging on the server before you do the save, and include the relevant portions of the log with the reply, that would also help.
