importing excel forms to adobe and associatied problems

[Trackline Pty Ltd]

I imported an excel spread sheet form into adobe. It did not bring across the drop downs and the "equal to" .

IIhave reconstructed the drop downs but now I need the selected from the drop downs to auto fill the cells on the next form.
How do I do this??

Fields and equations/calculations are not carried over when converting from Excel (or any other Office format) to PDF. They have to be re-created in the PDF from scratch.

To populate a text field from a drop-down selection you need to use a script. This is the basic code (to be used as the custom Validation script of the drop-down field):

if (event.value=="Option 1") {
	this.getField("Text1").value = "Some text for Text1";
	this.getField("Text2").value = "Other text for Text2";
} else if (event.value=="Option 2") {
	this.getField("Text1").value = "Some other text for Text1";
	this.getField("Text2").value = "Other other text for Text2";
} else {
	this.getField("Text1").value = "";
	this.getField("Text2").value = "";
}

Adjust the field names and values in the code as needed, of course.

If you want help you need to provide details. Just saying "it doesn't work" is not very useful to us.

Check the Javascript console for errors (ctrl-j).

I have no idea how to write Java script  I do not understand what I am supposed to write.

all i want is the answer in a drop down from one form to mirror in another. As per the screen shot.

So I guess I am the error!!!
