Reset button

[Former Community Member]

Hi All

I have a pdf form in which some values are prepopulated from the server and are read only fields. Now i have a reset button in the form which resets the whole form.

Now, The problem is when i reset the form the prepopulated fields/readonly fields are also getting reseted but i dont want that to happen.

Is there any way to achieve this?

Pls. help

Thanks

Hi Abhiram,

You can specify which fields or subforms to be reset. See an example here: http://assure.ly/jcHEyc.

Another approach would be to declare a number of variables (one for each of the pre-populated fields) and set the value of each variable to the corresponding pre-populated field. Then the script would do a global reset. The last bit of script would set the pre-populated fields value using the variables.

Hope that helps,

Niall
