Using the toolkit and the following code to stuff values into the pdf. Staic field names are not a problem. Dynamic field names coming from an array does...

I need to fill a PDF form via ASP.Net and the FDF Toolkit. I found the ASp.Net code to do it but the form fields do not get populated. I am wondering if I need to do something to the document in Designer to allow this.



Here is my dotNet code



Dim FdfApp As New FdfAppClass()

Dim FdfAcX_Doc As FdfDoc

FdfAcX_Doc = FdfApp.FDFCreate

FdfAcX_Doc.FDFSetFile("C:\Documents and Settings\me\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\OSP\test1149.PDF")

FdfAcX_Doc.FDFSetValue("B1_From_Address", " This is my very own test ", False)



FdfAcX_Doc.FDFSaveToFile("C:\Documents and Settings\me\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\OSP\test.fdf")

FdfAcX_Doc.FDFClose()

Response.ContentType = "Application/vnd.fdf"

Response.WriteFile("C:\Documents and Settings\me\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\OSP\test.fdf")

Response.End()
