Ok ok. Hope someone can help me out here!
I tried this in Acrobat Pro first, but I dont know Javascript and so couldn't modify the "Call Date" script to get the Time instead.
Fortunately, I also have Livecycle and everything looked so simple BUT it's not working.
Let me explain what I'm trying to do. My boss asked me to develop a log entry form in where after the user types in an entry and leaves the field then the time of the entry is automatically logged. This field should be unalterable.
I set up a Text Field (to act as the log entry form field). I then set up a Date/Time field. I went to Binding and changed it to Time. I changed the Value to Read Only, and then the Pattern to h:MM A.
Set up the action- when user exits the text field, the Date/Time field value is inserted automatically.
This works beautifully EXCEPT I only get the DATE! I've tried Protected, Read Only (calculated) etc. This requires a script to be called.... the very thing I hoped to avoid since I can't code. RunTime worked somewhat-- but in the PDF itself, when the user exits the text field, the date AND time shows up, but if that field is clicked, the time is updated. I don't want it updated. My boss wants to see the time that the log entry was completed so it can't be changed by the user or updated.
I hope I'm clear as to what I need. Anybody can help? Hope so!
Thanks--
