If checkbox is selected, text appears elsewhere on document in text box

[Senoj Tech]

Hello! I am very new to using javascript especially in Acrobat pro. I would like when a checkbox is selected, specific text appears in another text box. And if unselected, the text will disappear.

What is the simplest way to write that code?

Thank you so much for your help!

Let's say your 'text box' is actually a text field and let's say it's named "Text1", use this as Mouse UP action  'Run a JavaScript':

var cText = "Put your text here";

this.getField("Text1").value = (event.target.value == "Off")? "" : cText;
