I am stumped as to why my "add" button will not work to add another row to the table. I am certain the script is correct. Can I send the form to someone to take a look at and possibly tell me where I am going wrong?

Thanks so much,

Jenny

Yes ....

Found your issue ....when you define a subform as flowed you have to indicate that there may be more than one of these subforms. If you click on the repeating subform (in your case the Row1 node in the hierarchy view), then on the Object/Binding tab at the bottom of that tab there is a checkbox that indicates "Repeat Row for Each Data Item". Make sure that is checked.
If you activate the Java console (Ctrl-J) in Acrobat you will see this error:
GeneralError: Operation failed.
XFAObject.addInstance:1:XFA:form1[0]:RunningList[0]:Students[0]:Row1[0]:Subform[0]:Add[0]:click
The element [max] has violated its allowable number of occurrences.
That is how I found the issue.

Before you do that make sure that you saved the form as a dynamic PDF. If that still does not work send it to LiveCycle8@gmail.com

It is saved as a dynamic pdf. I just noticed also that the image will not appear on the pdf viewer and when I open in Acrobat. I will send the form to the email you indicated. Thanks. It is coming from jrowe@lepsolutions.com
