Forms can not do that easily, I think that you need to include Java.

Sorry, I don't know Java either. Unless someone offers "true" help, search the Internet for "PJC" (Pluggable Java Component) and "Java Beans" (have a close look at Pluggable Java Components & Java Beans' library). Also, check what Francois Degrelle talks about on his blog.

I can't think of anything else, sorry.
