We had a similar problem with our interactive forms. In our case it seemed to occur whenever users copied and pasted formatted text (bullet points were a particular sticking point) from Word into fields that were specified as Plain Text only.  The only remedy would be to ensure that any copied text ...

I've been batting this one back and forth for weeks now and every time I think I've finally nailed it something breaks it.Entering different values can cause terrible trouble for the calculations.  It's all based on a cheat's way of calculating time by using left and right to capture the values for ...

Thanks for this Srini.I have tested this out on our stand alone machine and it works perfectly. The problem we have is that our users do not have access to Acrobat Professional on the networked machines.They will access the forms via Reader using Internet Explorer.We have experimented with a simple ...

We previously had JetForms and whilst obsolete and ugly users liked the fact that they could use them to pre-poulate common fields across different forms.This was achiveved by filling in a form that in turn would generate an .xls file in the users personal drive.  By clicking on a button in other fo...

Thanks Paul.  This is a useful starting point.The matter is complicated though by the insistence of the form owner that the form is able to automatically adjust the calculated result to ignore weekends and specified public holidays.Is there a way to find the number of working/business days?

I need to do this for an annual leave form.Searching online has uncovered a number of possible scripts that could help but they are primarily written in the ...

Steve,Thank you so very much.  This is exactly what I have been looking for!  I will give it a try and see how I get on.Thanks again,Rich

Similar to my problem with converting a big chunk of validation into smaller chunks of functions I am trying to use Regular Expressions to handle the validation of many, many time fields in a flexible working time sheet. I have a set of FormCalc scripts to calculate the various values for days, hour...

We have a requirement to include a 'Check form' button on all our forms. This goes through the form identifying whether mandatory text fields have a value or not and then populates the text value of a hidden/visible error message box.This all works fine but writing 200+ lines of codes for the same s...

We have had real difficulties with LCD crashing whenever we make changes to the script editor window in 8.1.We have three laptops and the problem occurs on two of them.  We reinstalled the software but the same thing happens so it looks as though it must be something to do with the form itself.HELP...
