xfa.event.cancelAction

I'm trying to build in a condition in my Submit button that says if a given selection is No, the user can't Submit.

So it goes something like this:

if(form1.Pg2.RecoSF.RecoSSF.RecoAnswer.rawValue == 2)
{
    xfa.host.messageBox("Recommendation has been declined by Dept Manager.  Form cannot be submitted at this stage.","Recommendation declined",3,1);
    xfa.event.cancelAction == 1;
}

It displays the message, but it redisplays it about 5 times before it finally comes up with 'Submit Cancelled'.

Can anyone help me with the right script to do this?

Thanks,

Peta

Hi Peta,

Instead of writing xfa.event.cancelAction == 1 . Write xfa.event.cancelAction = 1 as in the previous statement you check the value where in the later you assign the value .

Thanks,
