I want to achieve something like this :

Document to have 2 list boxes  one filled with options and other empty and along with 1 button (add.)..

I should be able to select multiple option from 1st list box and then press Add button and it will populate all the options from list box1 to list box2 all at once.

 

Currently i have found a file on internet which does the same. but it add 1 option at a time.... when it select multiple options in the 1st listbox.. the add button doesnot work.

 

Plz guide ..

 

Thanks

Below Script worked for me :

 

 

var tableSource=new Array();
var selection = this.getField("List Box1").currentValueIndices;
var List1 = this.getField("List Box1");
var List2 = this.getField("List Box2")
if (typeof selection!="object") {
	tableSource.push([List1.getItemAt(selection,false),List1.getItemAt(selection,true)]);
} else {
	for (var i=0; i<selection.length; i++) tableSource.push([List1.getItemAt(selection[i],false),List1.getItemAt(selection[i],true)]);
}
var tableCible=new Array();
var li

You can use this code to do it:

var f1 = this.getField("List Box1");
var f2 = this.getField("List Box2");
var selectedItems = f1.value;
if (typeof selectedItems=="object") {
	for (var i in selectedItems) {
		f2.insertItemAt({cName: selectedItems[i], nIdx: -1});
	}
} else f2.insertItemAt({cName: selectedItems, nIdx: -1});

 

Adjust the field names in the first two lines, as needed.
