[uzzal5CEC]

Hi, in the attach pdf form. I've 3 fields in customer details section:

1. name

2. address

3. address2

I want to auto populate data from this 3 fields to "Ship to" section (bellow fields) if I click "SameAsAbove" checkbox:

1. Nameofshipping

2. Addressofshipping

2. Address2ofshipping

I've added bellow script in the chckbox field<Action<Mouse Up<Ran a Javascript&colon;

// check the state of the buttonif(this.getField(event.target.name).value == 'Yes') {// checked// copy address information// get each billing field object's value and set the shipping field's valuethis.getField('name').value = this.getField('nameofshipping').value;this.getField('address').value = this.getField('Addressofshipping').value;this.getField('Address2').value = this.getField('Address2ofshipping').value; // lock fields// set each shipping field's read only property to locked - truethis.getField('name').readonly = true;this.getField('address').readonly = true;this.getField('Address2').readonly = true;} else {// unchecked// unlock fields// set each shipping field's readonly property to unlocked - falsethis.getField('name').readonly = false;this.getField('address').readonly = false;this.getField('Address2').readonly = false;}

But the fucntion is not working. anyone could help me in this regard. BTW I've no idea about writing java script. However thanks in advance

Try this code:

if(event.target.value != "Off"){
this.getField("Nameofshipping").value = this.getField("Name").value;
this.getField("Addressofshipping").value = this.getField("Address").value;
this.getField("Address2ofshipping").value = this.getField("Address2").value;
this.getField("Nameofshipping").readonly = true;
this.getField("Addressofshipping").readonly = true;
this.getField("Address2ofshipping").readonly = true;}
else {
this.getField("Nameofshipping").value = "";
this.getField("Addressofshipping").value = "";
this.getField("Address2ofshipping").value = "";
this.getField("Nameofshipping").readonly = false;
this.getField("Addressofshipping").readonly = false;
this.getField("Address2ofshipping").readonly = false;}

Change the field calculation order.

[uzzal5CEC]

Thanks for your reply Bernd Alheit. I tried to reorder. here is the order of calculation fields: https://www.screencast.com/t/ASj0CFHVuBq

But still "subtotal" field not showing the value of 1st row. when I enter value in 2nd row then it show the result: https://www.screencast.com/t/cXiURSfucY

thanks in advance.

The picture shows the tab order, not the field calculation order.

[uzzal5CEC]

Sorry, actually I'm new user of calculation fields. I thought you told me about fields order. Here is the calculation script. It's in order and the fields also: https://www.screencast.com/t/xNmE8qUAooK

Still having the problem.

what is the "event.target.value" ... and where does that go on the form itself?

Is this the name used for the "same as above checkbox" or should we use a BUTTON instead?

I have a very similar task where the client fills out there address info in the top table of fields and, if the top address is same as the next one down, they can autopopulate those fields based on the previous inputs above using the CHECK BOX on ... hope this makes sense.

I am attaching a screenshot of my actual PDF in production ...

You should see 3 tables of fields where we collect the user's address details ... the logic here is:

They ALL fill out the top field in all cases

If the first table with fields has the same address specs, they use the checkbox above that table to auto populate

If the second table with fields has the same address specs as the first table NOT the top table ... they check that box to auto populate

Nesa's basic script is working but we have two checkboxes to contend with here ...

Thanks heaps!

Solved ... using this for the checkbox logic:

if (this.getField("Checkbox1").isBoxChecked(0)) {

Dear Nesa ...

Your script worked for me first time ... amazing!

However, what if they want to clear that entry ... if they TOGGLE OFF the checkbox, is there a way to reverse the auto fill of the fields like using a RESET functionality perhaps?

Thanks heaps
