Julie,The display and edit patterns on your table are not consistent
with the formattedValue in the function call. You have the patterns
defined as date{DD-MMM-YY}. The pattern on the function is
date{YYYY-MM-DD}.You can either change the pattern on the function call
to DD-MMM-YY or you can change the display and edit patterns on the
table to YYYY-MM-DD.Steve
Eric,The form hierarchy always includes a subform. When you generate a
new blank template you will see '(untitled Subform) (page 1)' in the
form hierarchy. In this case the page is a subform. A form is typically
constructed with multiple subforms on a page. Depending on the
complexity of the form you may have subforms nested in subforms.It is
possible to access an object without the subform name and apply
calculations, such as the FormCalc date function. Whether or not it
yields predictable resu...
Kevin,Given a form with the root 'form1', a subform called 'subform1',
and four checkboxes called 'lateral', 'main', 'inlet', and 'other', you
could run a script on the change event of each checkbox to compare the
current checkbox with all the others. For
example,form1.subform1.lateral::change - (JavaScript, client)if
(form1.subform1.lateral.rawValue == "0") { if
(form1.subform1.main.rawValue == "0" && form1.subform1.inlet.rawValue ==
"0" && form1.subform1.other.rawValue == "0") { //

Joseph,I suspect at the time the tutorial was written, the shipping
release of LiveCycle Data Services was 2.5, which included JRun 4. In
later releases of Data Services JRun is not included.An alternative to
JRun that supports LiveCycle Data Services is Apache Tomcat (5.0 and
5.5). You can download Tomcat
herehttp://tomcat.apache.org/download-55.cgiInstallation instructions
for Data Services and Tomcat 5.5 are
herehttp://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/es/lcds_installation.html#tomcatSteve
Julie,Given a form with the root name 'form1', an untitled subform, and
five occurrences of a DateTimeField called 'dtf', you could add the
following FormCalc script on exit event of 'dtf[0]' to calculate the
next four days based upon the date selected for 'dtf[0]'.
form1.#subform[0].dtf[0]::exit - (FormCalc,
client)xfa.form.form1.#subform.dtf[1] =
Num2Date((Date2Num(xfa.form.form1.#subform.dtf[0].formattedValue,"YYYY-MM-DD")+1),"YYYY-MM-DD");xfa.form.form1.#subform.dtf[2]
=

GMS,Designers often choose between applying rules at the time individual
objects are filled versus applying rules to all objects when a form is
submitted or saved. The following describes the first option.Radio
buttons are nice option instead of check boxes. They can be made to look
like check boxes and you don't have to manage the alternative response
(un-check).Create a radio button list, called 'answer', defined as an
exclusion group with the radio buttons 'yes' and 'no'. Define the item

Jordan,Feed.java imports three Flex messaging classes: 1)
flex.messaging.MessageBroker2) flex.messaging.messages.AsyncMessage3)
flex.messaging.util.UUIDUtilsThese classes must be included in the build
path. If you have a license for LiveCycle Data Services ES, these
classes are available in ../WEB-INF/lib. If you do not have a license
for LiveCycle Data Services ES, you can get these classes in the open
source version of Data Services ES called
BlazeDS.http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/bl...
Ambika,Yesterday I put together a servlet to accomplish a similar task.
The following code snippet gets the submitted PDF from the HTTP request
input stream, calls Forms ES to render the PDF, gets the attachments
from the rendered PDF, and iterates over the attachments. I added
comments in the while loop, below, to indicate possible
actions....Document formIn = new Document(req.getInputStream());
RenderOptionsSpec renderOptionsSpec = new RenderOptionsSpec();
renderOptionsSpec.setLocale("en_US");...
Kevin,Create a Date/Time field and call it 'dob'. Add the display
pattern 'date{MM-DD-YYYY}'.Create a TextField field and call it 'age'.On
the 'dob' exit event add the following FormCalc script to execute on the
Client.age =
Round((Date2Num(dob.formattedValue,"MM-DD-YYYY")-Date())/365.25)*-1Steve
Philip,As John Y. mentioned there is a known issue with the Sun
JDK.http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4705373The
solution may require the use of another JDK. I am awaiting feedback on a
solution also.Steve
I am guessing it is because you don't have Acrobat Professional
installed.If that is true and you need to install Acrobat Professional,
the LiveCycle ES JBoss turnkey install should include a trial version of
Acrobat. Check the installation for a folder called 'additional' and you
should find an 'acrobat' folder.Otherwise, go and download a trial at
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/tryout.htmlSteve
Are you able to access the Administration
UI?http://localhost:8080/adminuiIf not, if you are running on Windows do
you have localhost defined in your hosts file? You have to map localhost
to the loopback IP address 127.0.0.1.In
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts you need the following
entry:127.0.0.1 localhostSteve
A node can be added to an XML instance using XSL in an XSLT Transform
service, also.My sample process uses two input process variables:1.
'inputXml' of type xmluser12. 'approverId' of type stringfoobarI define
the following XSLT template which consumes the input process variable
'approverId': ApproverID {$ /process_data/@approverId $} The result of
the applying the XSL is as follows: user1 foobar The process could be
designed to iterate over the input XML and the XSL.Steve
Kim,The limitation is probably in AD. Many LDAP directories have a limit
on the number of rows/objects that can be returned from a query.Take a
look at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/243281. "To improve the query
response time when you are searching for Active Directory objects in a
Windows 2000-based organization, searches are limited to 10,000 objects
by default."Steve
Hi Nojun,I just created a custom object based upon the ISO 3166 country

Hi Dave,If you are referring to LiveCycle Designer you do not need any
additional software to author barcoded forms. The same is true of
Acrobat Professional 8 and 9. However, in Acrobat Professional 6 and 7
there was a plug-in required to create barcoded forms. There is splash
screen in both Designer and Acrobat Professional stating the requirement
for LiveCycle Barcoded Forms ES. This is a common source of confusion.
LiveCycle Barcoded Forms ES is a server-side component that provides
barcode ...
Ambika,Is port 8001 the alternate HTTP port for you application server?
As a well-known port number that is unusual.There are several ways to
validate the installation and configuration of Reader Extensions.1. From
LiveCycle ES Administration Console, click About. The splash screen
includes the list of installed components.2. Check the Configuration
Manager log file (on JBoss see
C:\Adobe\LiveCycle8.2\configurationManager\log\lcm.0.log or
\opt\Adobe/LiveCycle8.2/configurationManager/log/lcm0.log...
Petr,I think it boils down to the collection types in LiveCycle ES - map
(java.util.Map or java.util.HashMap) or list (java.util.List). Also,
consider Flex data type AMF3 serialization for Java documented at
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/html/ent_services_config_097_07.html.Steve
kelyn,Your requirements are vague. Do you want checkboxes (multiple
choice) for the medical condition and radio buttons (single choice) for
A or H?Steve
smde,I am not sure what you are trying to accomplish but I would
discourage directly modifying the XML source.Typically a fill colour
change is performed in response to an event such as a failed validation.
In this case you would put your script in the validation event for the
applicable object.Additionally, your script is not going to work because
you are checking equality "==" rather than doing an assignment
"=".this.border.fill.color.value = "225,0,0,";will change the fill
colour to red.Steve
Ullas,To install LiveCycle PDF Generator ES on top of an existing
LiveCycle ES deployment, you need to run the Configuration Manager and
add PDF Generator. On JBoss see
C:\Adobe\LiveCycle8.2\configurationManager\bin\ConfigurationManager.bat.It
will regenerate the adobe-livecycle-jboss.ear.Steve
Julie,I think you are asking if you can pop open the calendar window
when a user tabs into the field or puts mouse focus on the field. You
cannot. To open the calendar window you have to click the drop-down
arrow. The date/time field is designed to provide the option of date
entry or date selection.Perhaps you could give the date/time field a
Default value that induces the user to click the drop-down. Something
like 'use window >>>>>'.Steve
Niall,Today there is no such developer workflow between Designer and
Flex/AIR.Having said that, you can build Flex/AIR applications that
render a PDF form or a Form Guide. Workspace ES being the primary
example. This does require Forms ES for form rendering on the
server.Steve
Monir,I think you may be confusing the input properties defined on the
GeneratePDFService (CreatePDF2) in the Workbench with the endpoint
configuration done in the Admin UI.One way to access the endpoint
configuration is Home > Services > Applications and Services > Service
Management. Filter on the category PDF Generator and click on
GeneratePDFService:1.1. Click on the Endpoint s tab, select
WatchedFolder in the drop-down, and click Add.Steve
