I have a form where unchecked checkboxes are hidden upon printing. There is form validation that cancels printing if the validation fails.
This works EXCEPT when validation fails the form will not reset -
IF VALIDATION FAILS, the hidden checkbox and adjacent text fields (in the subform) won't become visible again when the reset button is clicked and the form will not reset. Nothing happens when you click the reset button.
IF VALIDATION FAILS and you go back and try to fill in the missing required field and click print again, nothing happens.
IF VALIDATION SUCCEEDS everything works great and the form is reset completely.
How can I show the form again in it's entirety and blank OR reload the blank form if
There are 2 pages. Both have a Print and a reset button. The 1st page is a fax cover sheet. The 2nd page is a form with the checkboxes.

This may be to do with the bug with cancelAction. Are you using Reader 10.0?

Companywide, our users are on Reader 9.5. If the bug is the issue, then I will need to change the script because our IT Dept won't implement the change until they are good and ready. If it's not the order in which the script is firing, then any suggestions other than an update?

No the bug is only with Reader 10.0 so if you are using an older version it may be something else. Just keep in mind though if anyone uses your form with 10.0 it will still occur - basically the bug causes cancelAction to cancel everything not just code it is assigned to.
