Good Morning Everyone,

I'm looking to see if anyone can help me with an issue I am having.

Can any assist me?

Hi.

Assuming that text fields are named text.0 and text.1 (the dot really matters, you can add more text.n fields if you want).

Place this script in the checkbox as a mouse up event:

if (event.target.value != "Off") {

this.getField("text").readonly = true;

} else {

this.getField("text").readonly = false;

}

Hi there,

I suggest you to have the code on the change event of the check box.

Also, the readonly property is not the right property if you are using dynamic forms.

Use this snippet code instead.

Hope this will help!

Oops, sorry.

I came to this topic from another forum page and I didn't notice that it's in the LiveCycle Designer section.

So my answer is about Acrobat Pro.
