That requires using a script, like this one I've developed: Custom-made Adobe Scripts: Acrobat -- Import Items from a Text File to a Combo-Box or List Field

For what do you want to use the text in the second column, though?

OK, in that case you use use my script to import it as the so-called "export value", and then another very simple script to copy that export value to the postal code text field.
