Is there a way to auto populate a text field

[dannyp10549469]

Is there a way to auto populate contents in a text field based on a previous text field in acrobat dc pro.

I have created a form that has several text fields that contain the same information, but may have slight variations in what is needed.

if text 1 has a company name in it, the next form may have the same name in it or it may have a registered business name in it. and I would like it to auto populate with the text 1 info, but allow me to change it if need be with only affecting the second or the third etc. 

Thank you

You can use the validation event of "text 1" to populate the other fields.

The basic code for that will be:

if (event.value) {
    this.getField("text 2").value = event.value;
    this.getField("text 3").value = event.value; // etc.
}
