Not getting the values

Avatar

Level 2

Hello. I have made several very basic forms (using Designer ES2), but have run into a new problem. When I 'Merge data files into spreadsheet' from Adobe Acrobat Pro, only two of my bindings are being exported. This is a very basic form consisting of 1 numeric data field (working), a date field (working) and numerous radio buttons (none working, at all). I created this form the same way as all my previous forms. I know there is a way to allow/dis-allow data to be exported to a .csv file, but I never learned how and can't figure out the right search terms to come up with the answer. It seems like a simple problem, but all I can find are complicated answers.

Any help is much appreciated!

Edit: The values from previously functioning forms and being exported on some computers, but not all. Suggestions for why this may be happening? In old and new forms, the Data Binding option in LiveCycle is all Use Name(), as I believe is appropriate.

If all your bindings are in proper place, it should work. Have you checked whether you have given any particular values for radioButtons? Check the radioButton bindings once again, Check the submitted the XML from the form then check the radio button values. Id it's there then there might be some other issue other than data binding. If it's not then cross check your data binding.

Thanks,

It appears that the bindings are in everhwere they should be, but I'm not really able to read XML. Here's an excerpt. From what I gather, it should be working.

Your radiobuttons value are 1-2-3-4

using the event change or click on your RadioButtonList would manage all 4 radio buttons

use

if (radButtonList.rawValue == 1)

else if (radButtonList.rawValue == 2)

else if (radButtonList.rawValue == 3)

else if (radButtonList.rawValue == 4)

whichever is chosen you can get the property you need....

Also your DisplayItem values are 1-2-3-4

Hope this helps!

Also make sure your Specified values are exactly what you need... I've just seen that some buttons doesnt have Specified Values, this might be your problem
