I have a need for the following.A date field (FieldA) needs to be auto populated on the current date when the signature field (SignA) is populated.  I wrote this code to accomplish this, and its placed in the Custom Calculation Script in the date field (FieldA).  It works.event.value=(this.getField("SignA").valueAsString=="")?"":util.printd("m/d/yyyy",new Date()); There are 4 different signatures requried on this field, hence all 4 will have the same requirement.However, I did not take into account that the form will be signed on different days.  Once the first date is populated after the first signature, and a day(s) passes, when the form is modified, it recalcuates and updates the already populated dates to most current.  I want to lock the date once SignA is signed and FieldA is calculated for the first time, with no further updates to that date.  I hope this makes sense. Thanks,

If I enter a number in the drop-down list, it will be displayed as text in the field. Is there no choice but to create another field and use it to convert it to a number ? Is there any way to solve it by entering the formula in the dialog of the dropdown list ? When migrating data with FDF, I am having a problem that the destination field that is set as a numerical value is not read. And are the available methods Number(), parseInt(), parseFloat()?↑↑↑I'm sorry. Above is insufficient information. I can format the dropdown list with numbers by my Acrobat pro DC. However, it seems that the Chinese person who uses this file is the Chinese version, and he says that Chinese version does not have an official setting in the drop-down list....

I have a form with two date fields, "certDate" and "expireDate" (both set to mm/dd/yyyy format). Once a date is entered into the first field, "certDate", the date entered into the second field, "expireDate", can't be more than two years later than the first date. It can be less than two years later than the first date, but can't be earlier than the first date. How should "expireDate" be scripted?

Hello,Is it possible to combine multiple PDF files into one PDF based on a key text as a parameter for the collation?I have 3 PDF filesFile 1: Cover lettersFile 2: Account statementsFile 3: Application Each file contains documents that correspond to different users. Each document is identified by a key text that is the user's code. The user code is always printed in the same place on each type of document.The combined PDF should show the pages following this scheme:Cover letter - user 1Account statement - user 1Application - user 1Cover letter - user 2Account Statement - User 2Request - user 2Cover letter - user 3Account status - user 3Request - user 3etc... Is it possible to do this with Acrobat?  If possible, where can I get an example of how to achieve this type  of combination?If it is not possible to do this kind of combination directly with Acrobat, any idea how it can be done using programming code? The files contain documents from hundreds of users and

I have browsed the forums and have tried some samples, but I can't make any headway.  I have a numeric field on an form in Acrobat X that I want to be an average of several groups of check boxes.  For the simplicity sake of my test, I have three groups of 5 check boxes.  For each group of 5 boxes, they have an export value of "1", "2", "3", "4" and "5" respectively.  The first 5 have the name "Prop1", the second group is named "Prop2" and the third is "Prop3".  If I take my numeric field where I want the average and go to the calculations tab and select "Average" and then chose "Prop1", "Prop2" and "Prop3", it works as long as none of the groups have a blank check box.  I want it to ignore any group with a blank check box (where the value of the group would be "0" or null) and only average the groups that have values.  For instance, if the group "Prop1" has the "3" check box selected, and the group "Prop2" has the "3" check box selected and the group

Hello.Basically, I have 120 fields and I need them to be displayed in groups of 30.So, there are 4 buttons:Fields 1 to 30 are visible. The others are hidden.Fields 31 to 60 are visible. The others are hidden.Fields 61 to 90 are visible. The others are hidden.Fields 91 to 120 are visible. The others are hidden.This works and does exactly what I want, but it is a bit laggy, taking a few seconds for each button to perform its actions. So, I tried to solve this in some way and arrived at the following "solution":I left the 120 fields hidden, and created new 30 fields to just display the information.Now, when clicking on the buttons, they do not hide/show, but exchange information between them, thus displaying only the 30 that I want, according to the button that is pressed.It worked, but it got even more laggy.And now, I'm out of ideas.So I come here to ask: Is there any less laggy way of dealing with this? Thanks.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone could help me with a script for a text field. I'm new to javascript so it's somewhat is a challenge to me. I was wondering if there is a function that can search my entire pdf for a string and if the string is there then change the value of the text box to another string, for example "Found." To be more specific, I wanted to check off buttons if three certain words are found through out my document. I believe I can handle the rest of the script if I can get some guidance on how to scan my doccument for a certrain string. Any help would be appreciated, thanks! 

I am very new to creating Adobe Forms and also very new to Javascript. I've been tasked at work to create a form with fillable fields that can be submitted whenever someone needs to request a new project from my department. Easily done. The catch is that they also wanted 1) the ability to add attachments to each submission (Solved), and 2) the ability to create a unique document ID each time a submission comes in. #2 is where I'm stuck! I did some digging through the forums and found some different javascript codes that did the trick. After experimenting, I found that the yyyymmddHHMM format works perfectly for assigning document IDs. I set the script to assign a number when the Form is opened. Everything workedgreat! ...until I "Distribute" the Form and publish it. In short, even though I clear the fields and save the document, the Form "opens" anew and assigns a document ID in the text field when I hit Distribute to publish the Form, which makes the document ID static/
