I have a PDF form that pulls data from a SQL Server. The fields in
the PDF are populated from the database after selecting a specific
record from a drop down and then clicking on a button labeled "Fill".
The problem is that the dropdown does not display new records that
have been recently added to the database. I have to open the form up
in designer then save it, (*note - I change nothing at this point.)
Then when the form is opened back up in Adobe the dropdown show all
the records including the new ones. I even put a manual refresh on
form to try and fix this an it did not help. Seriously stumped.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Here is my code for the dropdown.

topmostSubform.Page1.JobSelect::initialize - (JavaScript, client)
var sDataConnectionName = "BBCC"; // example - var sDataConnectionName
= "Test";
var sColHiddenValue = "ContractAdmin_Key"; // example - var
sColHiddenValue = "Dept_ID";
var sColDisplayText = "JobDescription"; // example - var
sColDisplayText = "Dept_ID"
// Search for sourceSet node which matchs the DataConnection name
var nIndex = 0;
while(xfa.sourceSet.nodes.item(nIndex).name != sDataConnectionName)
{
nIndex++;
oDB.open();
oDB.first();
// Search node with the class name "command"
var nDBIndex = 0;
while(oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).className != "command")
{
nDBIndex++;
var sBOFBackup =
oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).query.recordSet.getAttribute("bofAction");
var sEOFBackup =
oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).query.recordSet.getAttribute("eofAction");
oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).query.recordSet.setAttribute("stayBOF",
"bofAction");
oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).query.recordSet.setAttribute("stayEOF",
"eofAction");
// Clear the list
this.clearItems();
// Search for the record node with the matching Data Connection name
nIndex = 0;
while(xfa.record.nodes.item(nIndex).name != sDataConnectionName)
{
nIndex++;
// Find the value node
var oValueNode = null;
var oTextNode = null;
for(var nColIndex = 0; nColIndex < oRecord.nodes.length; nColIndex++)
{ if(oRecord.nodes.item(nColIndex).name == sColHiddenValue)
{ oValueNode = oRecord.nodes.item(nColIndex); } else
if(oRecord.nodes.item(nColIndex).name == sColDisplayText) { oTextNode
= oRecord.nodes.item(nColIndex); } }
while(!oDB.isEOF())
{
this.addItem(oTextNode.value, oValueNode.value);
oDB.next();
oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).query.recordSet.setAttribute(sBOFBackup,
"bofAction");
oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).query.recordSet.setAttribute(sEOFBackup,
"eofAction");
// Close connection
oDB.close();
