package. So If the user logs in and select to sign up forms related to
Package 1, he/she will be required to fill out each form. Now I have an
issue: each user will generate a unique transaction number to identify

I have 2 forms form 1 and Form 2; how can i access form 2 fields from
form 1? I read the Acrobat Javascript reference and I saw this code
snippet:var otherDoc = app.openDoc("myDoc.pdf",
this);otherDoc.getField("name").value="Enter your name here:
"otherDoc.getField("name").setFocus();this.closeDoc();I reconstruct it
to match my form values. It opens the other form but it doesnt do
anything else.Is there a way to do this?

Need help,Here is an issue I need help with ...form 1 inserts data into
a database and then form 2 retrieves some of this data from the database
when it is open. After form 1 is filled out a button is clicked to open
form 2. Now here is the issue: Since form 2 retrieves data from the
database which was entered from form1 there obviously need to be some
link between the 2 forms. Therefore a transaction number is saved to the
database to link the forms. Now I need this number to be available when

This is how i will solve it..on each field: whether a text field, combo
box etc you can view their events by clicking them and selecting from
the drop down list; in this drop down list u will see a number of
events: click, enter, exit, prePrint, preSave etc and in that list u
will find form:ready. Select it and paste the code there make sure
Javascript is selected as the Language.

I also did some reading on my own else where and this is what I
foundhttp://livedocs.adobe.com/livecycle/8.2/acrobat_designer/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=Adobe_LiveCycle_Designer_Help&file=001406.htmlwhich
states that it doesn't applies to the preSave event.Is this true? I
tested the cancel action on the prePrint event and it did cancel it but
when tried on the presave it failed.Here is the code I
used:xfa.event.cancelAction = 1;Thanks for ur assistance.

hey I just downloaded the Adobe Acrobat 9 trial version for testing to
see if your solution worked...Using Livecycle es 8.2 which is bundled
with the product I do see the cancelAction under xfa.event; however
could you send me an example of how you use this method to cancel saving
on the pre save button? code examples will help?

Thanks for the reply...I figured it has something to do with the
prePrint/preSave events, but on what field or moreover where will I put
my code to do this, meaning you are only allowed to enter codefor the
prePrint/preSave events ontextfields, checkboxes etc. could i just put
it on any textfield and it is guaranteed that the event will be called
wen the print or save button that adobe provides is clicked. To continue
whenever I am entering this xfa.event.cancelAction, u know when you
enter xfa....
