Drop Down List - Text Field

Hi all,

I'm needing to figure out how to let a user select one of three options from a drop down list and once they do that, have their choice populate a pre-defined note into a text field.

3 choices in a drop down each corresponding to a specific note.

Best,

Mike

As the custom calculation script of the text field you can use something like this:

var f = this.getField("Dropdown1");
if (f.valueAsString=="Option 1") event.value = "Text 1";
else if (f.valueAsString=="Option 2") event.value = "Text 2";
else if (f.valueAsString=="Option 3") event.value = "Text 3";
else event.value = "Default text";
