Hello everyone,

I have no JavaScript knowledge so I need your help.

I have a form with multiple fields (they where auto-generated when I had Acrobat detect the fields so the names vary but they should all have the same properties).

I would like to change the format to currency ( "0.10" should be "$ 0.10").

Could you please advise on the JavaScript code I need to use?

I tried to google some solutions but nothing seemed to work.

Your help would be greatly appreciated

Both links assume you have some basic skill with Acrobat JavaScript.

Thank you for your reply.

I tried to follow the instructions from the links you sent me but it didn't work.

Unfortunately, I do not have any knowledge of JavaScript so I'm not sure how to edit the examples you provided me.
