Now I will pass this value from the web application...is there a way to send this value to the pdf form when the user opens the f...

ok thanks

ok thanks again,I will be accessing and calling these forms via a web application..is their a way to send a value like for example in my case: a transaction number (variable) from an aspx page to the pdf? so the user is doing the transaction on a web page a transaction number is generated for each user...when the user clicks to open the pdf to fill it out I want that number to be passed to the pdf?Is there a way to do this? whats the code?

any solution?

Does anyone know how to do this? Really need the help..Thanks in advance.
