Hi,

Here's a couple of links that might help with getting the drop down to work.

And here's a sample that has a dropdown with languages and displays the words for 1,2,3,4, that might help as well.

https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=hFpi8EWJF0ejwP*gVKIMAw

This takes XML like;

<codes>

<value id="1" display="English">

<field1>one</field1>

<field2>two</field2>

<field3>three</field3>

<field4>four</field4>

</value>

<value id="2" display="Maori">

<field1>tahi</field1>

<field2>rua</field2>

<field3>toru</field3>

<field4>whā</field4>

</value>

</codes>

and has the following code in the change event of the drop down

var bountId = this.boundItem(xfa.event.newText)

var code = $data.resolveNode("codes.value.[id=="+bountId+"]");

TextField1.rawValue = code.field1.value;

TextField2.rawValue = code.field2.value;

TextField3.rawValue = code.field3.value;

TextField4.rawValue = code.field4.value;
