Removing a tab stop in a form field

New Here ,
Mar 25, 2019 Mar 25, 2019

I have a field at the bottom of my first page that I would like to duplicate at the bottom of all subsequent pages in the form.

However, I don't want there to be a tab stop for that field on any pages but the first one when I enter the appropriate text to be repeated at the bottom of each page. Is this possible?

Not if you use the same field name. So you'll need to rename all the duplicate fields and then copy the value from the "main" field to them using a script. For example, if the main field is called "Name" use this code as the custom calculation script of the duplicates:

event.value = this.getField("Name").valueAsString;

Then set them as read-only and they'll be excluded from the tab order.
