If If Then Statement

[Meriedel]

Hello,

I'm trying to do something that's way over my head and would appreciate any and all help.  I want acrobat to look at a field and if that number is 1 or 2 or 3 and then another field and if that number is 800 or 900 or 1000 spit a fixed number into a third field.

Hi Meriedel,

Here is a tutorial with examples on writing if statements-

Hope this helps,

Thank you!

Again, thank you, but I've already read that. I would really, really appreciate an example of code that looks at two fields and depending on the values in those two fields, auto populates a third. I'm not a programmer so this is really hard for me to do without seeing an example. Thank you again.

Place this script as a "calculation" script into the 3rd field:

if (this.getField("FirstField").value == 1 && this.getField("SecondField").value == 800) {
event.target.value = 123456;} // where 123456 is the "fixed number"

else if (this.getField("FirstField").value == 2 && this.getField("SecondField").value == 900) {
event.target.value = 987654321;} // where 987654321 is the "fixed number"

else if (this.getField("FirstField").value == 3 && this.getField("SecondField").value == 1000) {
event.target.value = 657483920;} // where 657483920 is the "fixed number"

// etc.

else {
event.target.value = "";} // nothing

Thank you so very much!!

It should be event.value, not event.target.value .

Again, thank you so very much. I have one more question if you don't mind. What I'm really trying to do is not == but if above 801 and below 900, etc. I've tried all variations on <> and can't seem to get it. Any help is once again very much appreciated. Thank you.
