Redirecting a user back into a fillable form.

I'm building a new-hire packet for my employer. The concept is that all the forms a new employee needs to fill out will be centrally located on a USB drive we will give them. On this drive will be a fillable PDF; all company native forms aren't a problem but government forms are all password protected so we will provide a link for the user to navigate outside of this file to fill out their W-2 etc. Once they're done how can I get them BACK into finish the remainder of the native company forms?

If the form is password protected it means you can't edit, and therefore can't add links or anything else to it.

What you can do, though, is add a script to the link that takes the user to this form, that will show an alert reminding the user to return to the original form after completing the other form.

The code of this script can be something like this:

app.alert("Enter your text here...",3);
