I often work on LiveCycle projects where an application generates a populated XFA form and then I have scripts occurring on the initialization event to further utilize the populated data. The method I have always done to accomplish this is to create a subform with "mergefields"(textfields) containing data binding. When the application loads data into the form, the scripts reference those mergefields and further actions/calculations are done with the data in those fields.
The mergefields subform can be cumbersome to create as I have to cut/paste or drag and drop the fields in them.
Is there a better/cleaner way to approach what I am trying to accomplish? I tried using the Referenced Objects section, but the data is not "loaded into" those fields during forms generation. The data connection is XML.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Assuming a sample XML like that:
<root>
<section>
<field1>gg</field1>
...
Instead of creating fields and bind them to $.section.field1
You can use in scripting xfa.record.section.field1.value
