Filling of several fields of another field.

Hello

Form multi page, on the first page, I have a field called ToDaysDate which will fill up as soon as the form is opened, other pages have Readonly fields that are called CToDaysDate, which, on the same JavaScript that opens the form, copy the value of the ToDaysDate on CToDaysDate.  It almost works % 95 of the time...  Here is the code that is executed when the entry and the opening of the form:

function populate_date()

{

If (this.getField("ToDaysDate").value is {this.getField("ToDaysDate").defaultValue})

this.getField("ToDaysDate").value = util.printd ("mm/dd/yyyy", new Date());

}

}

populate_date(); call my function

getField("CToDaysDate").value = getField("ToDaysDate").value;

What is so strange, it's only on page four of this form, there are two fields of CToDaysDate, because on this user page, or sign the participant or opt-out based on where the user signs, there is a date field in CToDaysDate... Strange thing is happening only the second CToDaysDate is filled one is left white. Why I have no idea... CToDaysDate #2 is empty, but CToDaysDate #3 is filled!  Both CToDaysDate #2 and CToDaysDate #3 are on page four, the rest of CToDaysDate are entered on the other pages.

I noticed that if I change the date fulfilled field ToDaysDate and others keep their former value, I guess I run/create JavaScript that runs under the tab of Validation for ToDaysDate and after validating the value in CToDaysDate copy, just?

Kind regards

Tab order is not the same as the order of calculation.

In the shape tool prepare look under the option 'More' (it's a drop down) and choose the 'Set field calculation order. ».

I have

Adjust the order of the fields by highlighting the name of the field to adjust and move it upwards or downwards if necessary. When you are finished, click "OK"...

You can post a link to the form or a form with a similar problem

  • How to fill several fields a...?


    I'm working with Acrobat 9 and try to change some fields in an existing PDF, I. I have some fields that repeat (EX: social security #) and I am trying to do it where it just fill in once and it will appear on other parts of the document. I was not the original developer of this PDF form to fill out, and the previous person has several fields that populate only randomly with information/data, when a particular field is completed. HELP PLEASE!

    The key thing to understand is that the fields with the same name will automatically have the same value. So, if you give it them the same name. If you don't want it to happen, assign each field a unique name.

  • How can I get text from several fields on a layer, copy a field on another layer?

    A little help please, as he did for years I did any coding of any kind.

    So, I have a document of 4 pages with different types of fields.  I have a document script that gets "TodaysDate" which works perfectly and some other scripts as well.

    So what I try to do is to find a work around for the following:

    I have 3 fields - NAME, first NAME and date of birth.

    Info.jpg

    And I want to what is typed in these fields to fill in 1 field.  And according to this tutorial (http://acrobatusers.com/tutorials/how-save-pdf-acrobat-javascript) it is not really possible.  At least, I think that's what he said.

    However, I hope that maybe I could have a button to send at the end of this document when you click Copy the text of these 3 areas (that I would on 1 layer) in 1 field on a 2nd layer.  Is it still possible?

    I also want to make the document print, Save (by using the text in the field on the 2nd layer as file name), Email (using the text in the field of the 2nd layer as the subject line) and export to a specific Excel spreadsheet.

    I'm not much I do?

    I'm using Acrobat 9 Pro on a Windows PC, but also have access to Acrobat 8 Professional.  And I want to run the form in Acrobat Reader X.

    So far, I have 3 fields in 1 on another layer:

    function buttonClick() {}

    if(ButtonClick==false)

    {

    Event.Value = This.getField ("Surname"+"-"+"FirstName"+"-" + "DOB") .valueAsString;

    }

    }

    But I don't know how to call the event.value 1 layer to another, or if none of that code above would even work at all.

    I have a script that I works perfectly for registration and Email function:

    Using the function "doc.submitForm ()".

    It is the return e-mail form. Its hard-coded

    to make the shape always comes back to the same address

    Change address on your form

    var cToAddr = " " [email protected] "; "

    First of all, download the customer email CC

    var cCCAddr = this.getField("ClientEmail").value;

    Now get the email recipient if it is filled

    var cBenAddr = this.getField("BennyEmail").value;

    If (cBenAddr! = "") cCCAddr += ';' + cBenAddr;

    Set text object and the body of the e-mail message

    var cSubLine = 'Form X-1 returned to customer'; var cbody = "thank you for submitting your form. \n' + 'save the attachment of e-mail for your own records;

    * Send the form data as an attachment of XML on an e-mail

    Construct the URL to messaging

    var cEmailURL = ' mailto: . " [email protected] ? cc = ' + cCCAddr + '& subject =' + cSubLine + '& body =' + cbody;

    1. this.submitForm({)

    cURL: cEmailURL,.

    cSubmitAs: "XML."

    cCharSet: 'utf-8 '.

    });

    I'll work on export to Excel thing later I saw many tutorials on that.  But I can do the 3 fields to 1 thing at all?

    Help, please!

    First of all, you must understand that in 99% of cases, fields do not exist on layers. The two are separate entities.

    And the code you posted is not correct:

    Event.Value = This.getField ("Surname"+"-"+"FirstName"+"-" + "DOB") .valueAsString;

    You can access each field separately using the getField method, so it should be:

    Event.Value = This.getField ("Surname") .valueAsString + '-' + this.getField("FIRSTNAME").valueAsString + '-' + this.getField("dob").valueAsString;

  • Update several fields... need advice.

    Hi all

    I have a bit of a problem with the update of several fields in a table...

    Lets say we have two tables. Table one is called t_employe for example:
    create table t_employe (
    year number,
    line varchar2(1),
    counter number,
    value number)
    To set random data in the table:
    insert all
    into t_employe (year, line,counter, value)
    values(2011,'3','2946','3344')
    into t_employe (year, line,counter, value)
    values(2011,'3','2947','4433')
    into t_employe (year, line,counter, value)
    values(2011,'3','2948','4455')
    into t_employe (year, line,counter, value)
    values(2011,'3','2949','5544')
    select * from dual
    OK second table would be:
    create table to_update (
    year number,
    line varchar2(1),
    counter number,
    date_pos_1 date,
    value_pos_1 number,
    date_pos_2 date,
    value_pos_2 number,
    date_pos_3 date,
    value_pos_3 number,
    date_pos_4 date,
    value_pos_4 number,
    date_pos_5 date,
    value_pos_5 number)
    Data:
    insert all
    into to_update (year, line,counter, date_pos_1,value_pos_1,date_pos_2,value_pos_2,date_pos_3,value_pos_3,date_pos_4,value_pos_4,date_pos_5,value_pos_5)
    values(2011,'3','2946',sysdate,'5434',null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null)
    into to_update (year, line,counter, date_pos_1,value_pos_1,date_pos_2,value_pos_2,date_pos_3,value_pos_3,date_pos_4,value_pos_4,date_pos_5,value_pos_5)
    values(2011,'3','2947',sysdate,'11',sysdate,'123',null,null,null,null,null,null)
    into to_update (year, line,counter, date_pos_1,value_pos_1,date_pos_2,value_pos_2,date_pos_3,value_pos_3,date_pos_4,value_pos_4,date_pos_5,value_pos_5)
    values(2011,'3','2948',sysdate,'33',sysdate,'44',sysdate,'8908',null,null,null,null)
    into to_update (year, line,counter, date_pos_1,value_pos_1,date_pos_2,value_pos_2,date_pos_3,value_pos_3,date_pos_4,value_pos_4,date_pos_5,value_pos_5)
    values(2011,'3','2949',sysdate,'1',sysdate,'2',sysdate,'343',sysdate,'78',null,null)
    select * from dual
    OK, now what I want to do is to update the fields in the table to_update where value_pos is NULL. To explain this better imagine
    Collums are from left to right in the order value_pos_1, the value_pos_2, the value_pos_3... Now, I would check for each line
    If value_pos_1 is null if it is then updated. Finist this row and move them to another. If not go to value_pos_2 in
    same rank and check again if the null value. If it's updated, if not, again to go forward. Each value_pos_X cullum has a date_pos_x cullom
    to be made same day as Value_pos_ cullums (if value_pos_X is null then date_pos_X coresponding will be null as well - is)
    a fact in my table).


    So is it feasible using only a single update?

    I managed to write a select statement by using the clause of the case that makes these things perfectly only for value_pos_X fields. I wonder if I can use in my
    Update statement?
    select 
    case when a.value_pos_1 is  null then b.value else 
         case when a.value_pos_2 is  null then b.value else
              case when a.value_pos_3 is  null then b.value else
                   case when a.value_pos_4 is  null then b.value else
                        case when a.value_pos_5 is  null then b.value else to_number('99999','9999,99')
    end
    end
    end
    end
    end  as value
    
    from to_update a,t_employe b
    where a.year = b.year
    and a.line= b.line
    and a.counter = b.counter 
    Suggestions how to extract it from?

  • Hide/show several fields via the Radio button

    Hi all

    I use the script below on an option button to hide and display a field on a form. I also want to use the same button to control another field named 'instructions for lbl_dynamic' The Acrobat forms book I use as a guide does not address the hiding and showing of several fields at the same time. My attempts to add the second field have failed. How can I change the script to control two fields instead of one?

    Thanks in advance for any ideas on that.

    var lst_dynamicFld = this.getField ("lst_dynamic")

    If (event.target.value == 'Yes') {}

    lst_dynamicFld.hidden = false

    }

    else {}

    lst_dynamicFld.hidden = true

    }

    'hidden' is obsolete, which means that in the next version of

    Acrobat/Reader, your script could no longer works if you use it.

  • Fill in the fields on the customer side dynamically without the reader extensions

    Hello

    Can I make a call to the server of a pdf form using Ajax technology? I want to fill some textfields dynamically on the client side based on a user selection. I have not the license extension drive still make a web service call to the server. Is there another way to achieve the desired requirement?

    Thank you.

    Yes, there is a better way to do it without Reader Extensions.

    AJAX is not an option, because this is not supported by Adobe Reader.

    Here is the solution:

    Write that a REST based web or any Service Server Page that accepts the query string and meets the specified query string.

    Assume that a Page http://myserver.com/EmployeeDetails?EmpId=1234 server returns the details of the employee as comma-separated values.

    This page can be called from PDF using FormCalc

    the syntax is

    ResultField.rawValue = Get ("http://myserver.com/EmployeeDetails?EmpId=1234")

    EmpName.rawValue = ResultField.rawValue.split (",") [1];          Retrieve the name of the emp of result and fill in the field

    Note that if the page or the web service requires authentication, a basic authentication dialog box appears when you call this method.

    In order to better allow anonymous authentication for pages.

    I have implemented this approach in many projects and works very well.

    Hope that helps...

  • Newb question - displays only the first of several fields

    As a first application of Bb, I write a stopwatch and I want the larger time scale and the small milliseconds. As part of what I am trying to display several bitmap or label side-by-side fields, but when I run it using the Simulator, only the first is displayed.

    So, for example, what I want is:

    1-2: 3 4:5:6 7 8 9

    with each number in own field but what I mean is just

    1

    that is the first field. If I then use buttons they all appear in the verticalFieldManager by default in horizontalField Manager but if I use labels or bitmaps, then all I get is the first field, even if I remove the horizontalFieldManager and just use the default verticalFieldManager. I googled the question, this forum and spent several hours reading the code examples and documentation, but I have yet to understand why I can't put several fields of these types of side-by-side. I have to have something between them as separators or empty fields?

    The code that I've got so far is the following...

     public TimerView()    {     super();      HorizontalFieldManager timerField = new HorizontalFieldManager();
    
          Bitmap hour10 = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("num_1.png");        Bitmap hour01 = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("num_2.png");        Bitmap minute10 = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("num_3.png");      Bitmap minute01 = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("num_4.png");      Bitmap second10 = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("num_5.png");      Bitmap second01 = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("num_6.png");      Bitmap ms100 = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("num_7.png");     Bitmap ms010 = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("num_8.png");     Bitmap ms001 = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("num_9.png");     Bitmap colon = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("Colon.png");
    
          BitmapField bfHour10 = new BitmapField(hour10);       BitmapField bfHour01 = new BitmapField(hour01);       BitmapField bfHourColon = new BitmapField(colon);     BitmapField bfMinute10 = new BitmapField(minute10);       BitmapField bfMinute01 = new BitmapField(minute01);       BitmapField bfMinuteColon = new BitmapField(colon);       BitmapField bfSecond10 = new BitmapField(second10);       BitmapField bfSecond01 = new BitmapField(second01);       BitmapField bfSecondColon = new BitmapField(colon);       BitmapField bfMs100 = new BitmapField(ms100);     BitmapField bfMs010 = new BitmapField(ms010);     BitmapField bfMs001 = new BitmapField(ms001);
    
          timerField.add(bfHour10);     timerField.add(bfHour01);     timerField.add(bfHourColon);      timerField.add(bfMinute10);       timerField.add(bfMinute01);       timerField.add(bfMinuteColon);        timerField.add(bfSecond10);       timerField.add(bfSecond01);       timerField.add(bfSecondColon);        timerField.add(bfMs100);      timerField.add(bfMs010);      timerField.add(bfMs001);
    
            add(timerField);  }
    

    I know that this code violates probably some best practices or standards, but I intend to clean later.

    -edited for spelling

    Give it a go with images of the numbers.  You have it easy with BitmapFields, because you know how much space they need with

    getPreferredHeight() and getBitmapWidth().  Then you should be able to stick them next to each other.

    If I was doing this and who are looking for a special look at the clock, which seems to be what you are doing, I would like to have the digital icons as you do, and then set an image large enough to hold the value of the clock and in my routine of painting, select draw digital icon proper, in the right place.  As long as you load the bitmaps only once, I think it's the most effective way to do it.

    Of course, a much simpler way would be to have just a RichTextField formatted as you suggest - RichTextField because you can have two different fonts in a single field.

  • How to allow the addition of attachments and more filled in form fields and signing existing signature field

    How do to allow the addition of attachments and more filled in form fields and signing of signature field when creating a secure pdf document?

    You must allow commenting as well. Reader users will be able to add attachments as comments. You can also use JavaScript with Player 11 and DC to automate the process somewhat.

    If you need users of Reader in order to add attachments as Acrobat can, you need to add the right of use of file attachments, but you can't do that with Acrobat.

  • When a box is checked, fill a text field with a value

    I don't know that it's simple; However, I am very new to acrobat and javascript.

    Here's what I want to do:

    I have a checkbox field and a text field. If the checkbox is turned "on" I want to fill the text field with a specific numeric value.  If she isn't 'unchecked' there is not value or value 0.  Any help is appreciated.

    Enter this code in the custom of your text field calculation script:

    This.getField("CheckBox1").value = Event.Value == "Off"? 0: 1234;

  • Unable to automatically fill in the fields that have a Global data link

    Hello

    I have a long form LCD with a button at the top that I use to fill in the form with the test data.  Then this button has a whole bunch of "rawValue = _" of statements.  But some of the fields in the form use global data binding, and the button won't just fill in these fields.  So, I always fill in these fields manually whenever I want to test.  Can someone tell me if there is a way around this?  Thanks for any help.

    Kam.

    Just figured out the answer myself.  The issue has been one of the issues being filled was a yes / no radio not button who was in command of "xfa.host.resetData" in it.  So whenever this radio button is checked, the function resetData will prepare the fields in this section, and then of course everywhere elsewhere due to binding global data.  I have removed the function resetData and the problem resolved.

  • When selecting several fields of the same type why tab formatting does not appear in the properties?

    Creating pdf with lines Qty and total order forms, I want to format the fields as number with 0 decimal places for the qty column and the sign $ and 2 decimals for the totals column.

    Why when choosing several fields quantity, then go to properties, the format tab disappear? Why do I have to choose and the format of each field one at a time? They have the same type of field.

    I'm working currently on a document with more than 200 fields are most of the quantity fields and others are total fields. I right click on each field individually.

    It's 2015! Can you imagine if Excel did it?... Adobe WTF?

    Only the Adobe developers can answer why it is like that, but it's unfortunately.

    The only solution is to use a script to set the Format setting for several fields at the same time.

    I developed such a tool, so if you are interested you can get it here: Scripts custom Adobe: Acrobat - Format applies to several text fields

  • What are the security settings to lock a form with fields to fill and still allow someone drive to fill in the fields as as to save the form and print it?

    What are the security settings to lock a form with fields to fill and still allow someone drive to fill in the fields as as to save the form and print it?

    You want to allow someone to open your document and fill in the form (the fields that you have created), but not change or edit the form, right? Here is the answer - assuming you use Acrobat Pro and someone will open the PDF with the Acrobat Reader 9 minimum and more:

    Tools > Protection > encrypt< encrypt="" with="">

    Select YES to change security.

    Opens in a new window:

    Do not select NOT open the Document (or will require a password to open the document.)

    SELECT: Permissions (check the box next to ' Restrict editing and printing of the document. ")

    Change the following 2 settings in the drop-down list box:

    Printing allowed: select high resolution

    Changes allowed: select commenting on, fill in the fields on the form and signature of signature fields
    Selected leave: "enable access text for playback devices to screen for people with visual impairments.

    Change password Permissions (insert a password)

    Leave all the other settings alone in 'Options '.

    OK - OK

    Again enter the Permissions password (the one you entered above)

    OK - OK

    Save the PDF file to apply security [notice that (SECURED0 will appear after the title of the document]
