Automated Date Text Fields

[Kyle22349662tdcx]

I am trying to create a automated form. 

I am trying to add in 7 days in the "Follow-Up Call Sched." text field, based off the date keyed in the first line ("Date of Call" field). For example, if I key in "12/22/2021" in the "Date of Call" text field, I would like to have Adobe automatically input "12/28/2021" into the "Follow-Up Call Sched." text field. 

How would I go about doing so? Thank you in advance for your help! 🙂

Use this script in a custom Validation script for the "Date of Call" field. 

I'm assuming you have provided the correct field names in your post. It is critical that the field names are correct in order for the script to work.  It is also very important that a field name not end with a period. If this is the case, then change it. 

this.getField("Follow-Up Call Sched").value = "";
if(event.value != "")
{
    var dtCall = util.scand("mm/dd/yyyy",event.value);
    if(dtCall)
    {
        var dtFollowup = new Date(dtCall.setDate(dtCall.getDate() + 7));
        this.getField("Follow-Up Call Sched").value = util.printd("mm/dd/yyyy",dtFollowup);
    }
}
