For dates within the same month, one could extract the date with some string manipulation, but if the months are different this would make the code more complex then learning to to use the Date2Num() funcition.This is not that hard.1. Make sure you have the 2 dates2. Know the format of the date fiel...

If you are going to set another field's value from a combo box or list you need to use some form a scripting.

You should do a new post and not hihack an exisiting post.You might find this calculation easier in FormCalc. There is a Time2Num() function that will convert a time stirng, that is a alphanumeric string and not a number string, to the number of milliseconds since LiveCycle Designer's Epoch date. Wi...

You can use the format string in the "Num2Date()" function or the 'util.printd()" method to get the day of the week.For FormCalc:// get the number of days from the Epoch datevar nFrEpoch = Date2Num("27 August 2008", "DD MMMM YYYY")// long day of weekNum2Date( nFrEpoch, "EEEE")// short day of weekNum...

Use the following JavaScript for the calculation script for DateField1:var AddDays = 0;// select action on value of DropList1 to set days to addswitch(DropDownList1.formattedValue) {case "1":AddDays = 1;break;case "2":case "4":AddDays = 2;break;case "3":AddDays = 3;break;case "5":case "7":AddDays = ...

In LiveCycle Designer one can call the FormCalc functions in JavaScript just like you are accessing the fields and their properties similar to FormCalc. This maybe easier than some fo the JavaScript procedures.JavaScript using the year, month, and date not the milliseconds:// get current date time o...

Look at using the "Date2Num()" and the "Num2Date()" functions to convert the string date value to the number of days from the Epoch date, do the math, and then convert back to date string. More information is in LiveCycle Designer's "Scripting Reference" under the "Help" menu option.

Well, have you tried just using a palin text field and writing your own validation, key stroke and format scripts?

To further add to Aandi's comment, files have to be able to be saved at the OS level for backups so there can be no totally effective solution. You could look at DRM and the cost and commitment to support for those products. You would also have to prohibit printing of the form. Or do you not allow a...
