Form Fields

Hi Friends,

I am using Acrobat 5.0. I know it is old. I have created a multi-page PDF doc filled with Form Fields. I have populated the Export Value in each of the Form Fields.
My boss now wants the Export Value(s) for each of the Form Fields to populate another document. The "other" document would have cells that would be populated by the Export Values from the original PDF document. I would think kind of like a 'link to target' set up.

Does anyone know if this is doable in the manner I am describing? Or if anyone has a suggestion I would be most grateful to hear from you. Many thanks in advance for your time.

    You will have to create the form in Acrobat not LiveCycle Designer, export the form data as an FDF file and then import the FDF file into the second form as long as the second form uses the same field names as the first PDF form. See the Acrobat distribution disk PFN sample in the forms directory.

    You will get more responsed in one of the http://forum.adobe.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bbeda8b/ Acrobat product forum rather than the Connect product forum.
