Hi All.

I create form with DropDownList and I create DataConnection for it with source XML file. But when I run form and open list it was empty. In LiveCycle to populate DropDownList I created DataConnection and use Import option. In AEM I don't know how to Import data. I will appreciate for explanation how to get result.

Thanks.

I solved the problem. After DataConnection was created need to do following actions:

  • From the Object palette menu, select Show Dynamic Properties.
  • Select Tools > Options > and select Data Binding from the list on the left. Then select the Show Dynamic Properties option and click OK.

Are you using an Adaptive form?

Hi smacdonald2008. Thanks for replay.

My form has some fields for fill by user. I'm thinking it is Dynamic form.

Thanks.

Based on you last post I understood that my question was not enough correct. I have experiences with LiveCycle but AEM Designer Form I just start to use. Most correct if I will ask:

How to populate DropDownList via XML file in AEM Designer form? I will appreciate if you may explained how it to do.

Thanks.
