I want a single button in pdf form to perform the below task:

Copy the value of the first text field to second field and  then reset the first field without changing the value of second field to which the original value was copied.

I used the following script but it resets the both fields;

first field = Text1;

Second field = Text2;

script:

this.getField("Text2").value = this.getField("Text1").value;

resetForm(["Text1"]);

thanks

I also tried the below script :

function one()

{

this.getField("Text2").value = this.getField("Text1").value;

}

resetForm(["Text1"]);

but this also didnot worked.. it cleared both fields.

yes, why? they are actual field names

Text1, Text2............... Text25


Then it should have worked.
