I have a form in Adobe Acrobat with three check boxes. I have set up that once one is checked, than other two are hidden. Which is what I want.

But in case when I uncheck the checked box (in case i checked the wrong check box and want to correct error), other two checkbox remain hidden and do not reapear.

How to set up that in case I uncheck box, other two apear again?

Mouse Up action script:

if(event.target.value!="Off")

{

this.getField("Check Box2").display=display.hidden;

this.getField("Check Box3").display=display.hidden;

}

else

{

this.getField("Check Box2").display=display.visible;

this.getField("Check Box3").display=display.visible;

}

A script is required to create this behavior. You'll find everything you need in this article, including a sample file.
