Connect the digital field with Drop Down

I have a numeric field for the zip code and a drop for the city.

I want that when I write the postal code in the numeric field to automatically display the city drop down list.

And even when I chose to drop down the list then show in the digital field (postcode)

I have all that in Excel.

Thank you

Use dynamic properties.

Start by importing the xml from your spreadsheet (you're on your own with who) excel. Assuming that each line is a city and a postal code, your xml code will look like this:

SomeCity

12345

.

.

.

(1) in the designer, go to file > new connection of data...

(2) select the sample XML data and the file in Excel.

(3) make good properties sure dynamics are enabled, tools > Options > Data Binding > show of dynamic properties.

(4) select your fall down and open the field in the object Palette tab.

(5) you will notice that the list items is green and underlined. Select it.

(6) for items, select the line

(7) for the text of the item, select the city

(8) for the value of the item, select the zip code

You now have your menu dropdown bound to the data in your Excel worksheet.

Now, just a bit of coding (brace yourself), in the digital realm for your zip code, in the case of output put:

theDropDown.rawValue = this.rawValue;

and to theDropDown:

thePostalCode.rawValue = this.rawValue;

Now all you have to do is import xml into your form to perform.

  • Fill in the other fields of drop-down Menus

    I'm trying to create a PDF file in which when an item is selected in a drop-down list, another field is given a specific value.

    Exact situation: I have created a photography print order form and there is a drop down menu to select the size of the print on the agenda (example: 4 x 6, 5 x 7, etc..) I want to set so that when a person chooses a certain size, say that 4 x 6, the "Unit price" field is automatically filled in with the price for 4 x 6.

    Is it possible to do so. I have decent programming skills, so I am open to any beginner or expert suggestions.

    Thank you!

    Set the value to export for each option in the drop down for the price, then

    apply this value in the fields where you want to display the price (for

    example, you can type name of the drop-down field of simple calculation).

  • Populate drop-down list with the results of several drop-down lists

    Oh and I use Acrobat Pro DC. Any help would be much appreciated!

    OK, you can create a function at the level of the document that is called in the Validate event of each of the two first drop down menus, something like:

    Function in JavaScript to the document level

    function updateDropdown() {}

    Get references to the drop-down menus of entry

    var F1 = getField ("DropdownList1");

    var F2 = getField ("DropdownList2");

    Refer to the output drop-down list

    F3 var = getField ("DropdownList3");

    Get the values of input field, as strings

    var s1 = event.target = f1? Event.value: f1.valueAsString;

    var s2 = event.target = f2? Event.value: f2.valueAsString;

    Fill the drop-down list of output with the elements, or deselect it if either input dropdown is 'empty' (single topic area)

    If (s1 = "" |) s2 === " ") {

    F3.clearItems ();

    } else {}

    F3.setItems (["", s1, s2]);

    }

    }

    In the two first downs Validate event, call this function like this:

    updateDropdown();

    You can of course name the function you want. More information about the properties and the methods used in the code are available in the Acrobat JavaScript documentation.

  • Problems with the sorting of a table with drop-down text cells

    I have 2 subjects (among a number of topics), and each section has a table.

    I followed Mr Grainge help to sort a table without an arrow and in heading 1, it does not work as expected. When I generate my WebHelp I can click on any one of my columns will sort the data. I can see the little black arrow head and black arrow head.

    I know absolutely nothing about HTML and basically followed the instructions for help and got to work.

    The second is a little different in that has 3 columns and rows about 375. The second column contains cells with the drop down text (but not all) as some have yet to be converted.

    The questions are:

    (1) a column will sort once only. So if I click on column 1, the head of black arrow appears. Subsequently, no amount of click will change the State of the data. I can sort the data on any of the 2 remaining columns, but I can never switch between ascendants and descendants of sequence on the same column.

    (2) in Design view, I see all the data in each cell. After that I generated my WebHelp, some of the cells that contain drop-down text fields are missing. Some are, and some are not. Those who are there, work perfectly when I click on the text and the text of the menu drop-down appears. Each drop-down text field has a bookmark.

    ((3) continuous on 2) above, if I use the combination of keys ctrl-w in design, some of the cells that contain text to menu drop-down are missing (probably all those lacking in the Webhelp) and oddly, some of the borders of the cells (I used light blue) are missing. However, they are there in the WebHelp. A sample is attached.

    Get my second table to work as I had hoped would be fantastic and worthwhile so far. However, I'm not quite there yet and need your help and suggestions.

    Please see the last item in the list under the Notes. I suspect this is the problem.

  • Download the news of a drop-down list for a field of text box

    Its that simple! That's all I need to know! The code to add to the information in a drop-down list (_cb) to a text field. I need to know wear put on the script IE in the action on the _cb layer. Your all!

  • menu with drop downs work on smart phone infreqently; However, works fine on the computer.

    menu with drop downs work on smart phone infreqently; However, works fine on the computer. Using Dreamweaver Adobe suite CS5

    Not sure what the question is. I suppose you want the menu to behave on a smart phone.

    Without seeing your code, it's just a guessing game. My first guess would be to ask if you have included the following line in the HEAD section of the document.

  • Validate the digital field - can be 10, 20 or 30

    I am using LiveCycle Designer ES (Version 8.2).

    I have a numeric field that can hold a 10, 20 or 30. It can also be empty, and I guess, a zero would be nice too.

    How can I accomplish this, since I'm a newbie here?

    Thanks for the comments.

    Hello

    If your entry is limited to only 10, 20 or 30, you can use a drop-down list instead of a numeric field.

    A drop-down list is good when you want to make sure that only user predefined values input and define the formats and connections.

    Implement the items in drop-down list in the object Panel and uncheck the box 'allow cistom entry. Go to the control panel link, and select the checkbox 'specify values. Assign a value of 10 '10', etc.

    You will be able to refer to the rawValue of the drop-down list script later, as you would with a numeric field.

    If you want to go with the digital field, you can set up a Javascript script in his output event:

    If (this.rawValue == 10 | this.rawValue == 20 | this.rawValue == 30)
    {
    do nothing
    }
    on the other
    {
    App.Alert ("invalid data entry: enter 10, 20 or 30");
    this.rawValue = null;
    }

    Good luck

  • AutoComplete with drop-down - menu obsolete LV?

    I have been hunting and the search for a solution in the LV forums to use an AutoComplete with a menu drop-down.  Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about.  See you all the time in many applications.  Heck, even this forum uses Autocomplete with Drop Down (attached).

    I've seen recent messages that State "OMG only GOOGLE can do this kind of things fancy, not mere mortals to LV."

    I think that Labview is behind the curve with the development tools, while other software continues to improve.  I've seen post here asking questions about this feature 8 years ago and still no answers.

    I have other ideas, I can use, but they are not as graceful as a menu drop down automatically.

    Here's what I need.  As long as the user types, a menu drop-down (from my TABLE) become smaller as they type.

    The combobox control is almost here... However, the ComboBox does that on the first game (does not show other games) and he has not a drop of water down, he has pull down.

    JQuery seems to be very popular today, has anyone tried using JQuery with Labview?

    Does anyone know how 'AutoComplete with Drop Down' in Labview?

  • If statement to change the items in a drop-down list

    Is there a way to change the options in a drop-down list in a script (without data binding)? So I have a drop down list and depending on what the user selects the second drop-down list will have different options. These elements can be specified by an if statement in the preOpen the second dropdown list event? The form will be filled out offline, so I don't want to put a link of data binding.

  • View usage type lookup does not match the object list definition drop-down display

    can someone tell me why this error could be coming:

    Thank you and best regards,

    Hello
    seems that in your choice list item (probably call him messageChoice), you are defiining of these properties of the list view definition and the choice list view instance.
    You must provide one. If your choice list values to all users (i.e. the vo behind the choice list has no dynamic where clause or the query), then use choose list definition property. If each user sees different options in the drop-down list (i.e. dynamic where clause for vo), use the property of the lookup instance.
    In the definition of choice list, give the fully qualified name of the vo.
