I have a form with a Yes check box and a No check box.
When the user checks No, I would like the text box beside it to autopopulate to read "Not Applicable".
When the user checks Yes, I would like the text box to be free flow text entry.
I am stuck on the javascript to accomplish this. Also, does the script go into the properties of the checkbox or into the text box?

Basically, you want to use the MouseUp action to run a script that will set the value of the text field when checked, and make it read only, but when uncheck, clear the field and make it not readonly.
var oTxtFld = this.getFeild("TextField");
if(event.target.value == "Off")
{//Unchecked
oTxtFld.readonly = false;
oTxtFld.value = "";
}
else
{
oTxtFld.readonly = true;
oTxtFld.value = "Not Applicable";
}
