The button will be used to populate the text field from the selected dropdown list.

You can use something like this as the Mouse Up code for the button:

if (this.getField("Dropdown1").valueAsString=="Option 1") this.getField("Text1").value = "Fail";

else if (this.getField("Dropdown1").valueAsString=="Option 2") this.getField("Text1").value = "Pass";

else if (this.getField("Dropdown1").valueAsString=="Option 3") this.getField("Text1").value = "Excellent";

Adjust the field-names and values as needed, of course.
