How to autofill a field

Hi there, 

I'm creating a fillable timesheet where the individual needs to select the meeting (either by check box or drop down menu, open to whatever is easiest). When they select the meeting I'm wanting a text box at the bottom of the pdf to autopopulate the general ledger code.

 

Is this possible, and if so, how do I go about creating that? I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro.

If the code is always same for selected meeting, add it as that meeting export value in dropdown field.

Lets say your 'text box' is actualy text field named "field1" (change name to your actual field name) use this as dropdown field validation script:

this.getField("field1").value = event.value;
