When I crete the button to reset the form, in it's settings or edit box, in the "Mouse Up" action, I do not see any fields in the "Selet fields to reset" box. Does any one know what should I be doing wrong in the form?

    Very strange... Did you create the fields outside of Acrobat, by any chance?

    One possible workaround is to use a script for resetting the form.

    To reset the entire form enter this code:

    this.resetForm();

    To reset specific fields enter this code:

    this.resetForm(["Text1", "Text2", "Radio4", "Total"]);

    (those field names are just an example, of course, replace them with the actual names)

      Thanks for your swift reply and easy way to solve my problem. Just FYI, I did the form in word and then imported to Adobe, has been a mess, some fileds keep some information, I can not delete, then, I decide today to start to create a new from scratch all in Adobe and see how everything goes. Thanks again and have a fantastic day.
