I have a form with a dynamic table that starts out with a header row and an empty row. I can add and delete rows using buttons and javascript that can be found everywhere. I also have a button that submits the form as a pdf attachment in an email message. I have a need to pull data from one column in the table and put it into the body of an email (the whole table would work too). I can access data in any cell in the first empty row, because I've named the cells (e.g. form1.Subform.Table.CellName.rawValue) The problem is when new rows are created I don't know how to access them. Any help is appreciated.

Dynamic Table output to email body

cannot export default value when exporting to XML using web service
Hello All,
In Designer, I create a new data connection (XML Schema), and bind 3 fields to the nodes, these 3 fields have default value in order to distinguish each form. For example, formLanguage=E, formVersion=1.0.0, formType=form1.
After applying reader extension to the form, I use web service API to export the form data to XML ("soap/services/FormDataIntegration?blob=mtom").
In the XML, i cannot find the default value of 3 fields. the nodes are empty.
In order to see the value of them reflected in the generated XML, I have to open the form, save it, then their value will be shown.
One more observation:
I fill in some other fields in the form with data, but keep those 3 fields with default value untouched. This form is copied to another machine. In that machine, do the export, although the XML generates the manual-input data, it doesn't have value for these 3 fields.
Do you have any suggestion what I can deal with it? In order to identify and distinguish the form, am i doing the wrong thing from the beginning?
Thanks in advance!

Crash due copying between files
Hello everybody,
I got the following problem:
In Adobe LifeCycle Designer ES4, we created an interactive pdf, used files in this case were Numeric, Text and Image (to paste images for a report).
Having multiple reports for the same customer, we wanted to copy data from the text and numeric field from one file to another.
We opened the created file in Adobe Acrobat and saved it with extended rights for Adobe Reader.
With both files open, Adobe Reader crashes regulary after pasting data or sometimes simply scrolling but with no visible pattern. The only reproducible crash happens after copy, paste and then hitting Tab.
I read in some forums, this problem could be solved deactivating Extended Security but nothing has changed.
Any ideas?
Regards,
diwa_gruppe
EDIT: Used Adobe Reader version is 11.0.3

Possible to show/hide sections in a table?
Hello all,
First post here. I've only started using LiveCycle Designer a few weeks ago, never knowing that it came with my Acrobat. I've been busy converting forms we use in our business into pdf versions that can be filled, and created some with simple scripting etc. Anyway my most ambitious effort to date is to create a gross payroll calculator in which I would enter the total hours worked for each employee and the gross payroll is calculated. The calculations I have no issue with.
I am using a hidden "config" subform (thanks to kingphysh for your easy and simple example!) to store the employee names and payrates and the department they work in.
My main form, the one on which I am entering total time for each employee, consists of a table with a section for each department. Thus I can put all employees in a department in one section of the table and then easily do subtotals by department etc.
Table1
Table1.Section1
Dept. Name | Emp. Name | Pay Rate | Total Hrs | Gross Pay| <-- this would be one row in the section
Table1.Section2
Dept. Name | Emp. Name | Pay Rate | Total Hrs | Gross Pay|
Table1.Section3
Dept. Name | Emp. Name | Pay Rate | Total Hrs | Gross Pay|
and so on. Each section also has a footer row for subtotals.
This form will be used at various physical locations and not every location will have all departments. Thus I want the table to show only those sections for which the corresponding departments exist based on a selection (checkbox) that is on the hidden config page.
Its not so much the actual scripting thats a problem, but where to put the script. Should I use a Table1 event or the checkbox event? I've tried both but neither works as desired. Or should I use an event for the individual rows in the section itself?
Any pointers and suggestions will be greatly appreciated!
Harry.

Caption Dynamic Property handling of variable data
I have a dynamic form containing a number of fields whose captions will vary based upon the data given to it. Say the data looks something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><Root> <Drinks> <Drink> <Name>Coke</Name> </Drink> <Drink> <Name>Pepsi</Name> </Drink> <Drink> <Name>RC Cola</Name> </Drink> </Drinks></Root>
I’ve attempted to set the caption of each field to the corresponding Name by using Dynamic Properties, $record.Drinks.Drink[*].Name in this case.
The following is generated in the XML: <setProperty target="caption.value.#text" ref="$record.Drinks.Drink[*].Name"/>
But the result is that the all Captions are set to the same value, the first child node of Drinks (Coke).
A link to the PDF is here: https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/987ba4fa-19e4-4e38-8147-a75c12daaa7c. You can import the above XML to reproduce the issue.

Adobe LiveCycle Designer 11.0 with AveryDennison printer MLI language problem
Hello,
We are using the SAP software which calls the SAP ME, and we downloaded the version Adobe LiveCycle Designer 11.0 from SAP support portal and use it for design our production label templates. Our printer type is called Avery Dennison, and it works in generally. But recently we got a requirement for a new label template. For this template we are asked to use some special font type, and we can design it in the Designer, and after that we tried the label printing, with the option Configuration File zebra300dpi - and in the Avery Dennison printer we setup the printer languge as MLI. We tried to print but we realized the special font cannot be sent from Adobe LiveCycle Designer to this printer, because the label comes from the printer always has the font Arial.
Do you have any idea whether I need upgrade anything to have the Adobe LiveCycle Designer support the special font to this kind of Avery Dennison printers?
PS - We tried another label designer tool, and from the designer side we also set the print lauguage as zebra, and printed the label which contains the special font successfully, which means the Avery Dennison printer with MLI language support the special fonts other than the Arial.
Thanks & regards,
Leon

If/then statement with hidden fields
I have a form with a drop-down field that has 3 possible values (Today, Tommorrow, Next Week). Below this drop-down field is text field (TextField10) that needs to be filled out by the user ONLY if "Next Week" is selected in the drop-down. I would like for TextField10 to be hidden unless "Next Week" is selected.
For TextField10, I have "this.presence="hidden" written into the initialize event so it is hidden when the user opens the form. This works.
For the drop-down field, I have:
if (this.rawValue == "Next Week") then TextField10.presence = "visible";
endif
written into the exit event in FormCalc. I need this in FormCalc because I have many other scripts in the exit event already written in FormCalc and I don't want to have to change all of them. I have checked "Specify Item Values" in the Binding Tab of the drop-down field.
Would someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. TextField10 is hidden, but never appears no matter what I select in the drop-down field.
thank you for your help!

How to force alpha or numeric inside text fields - LiveCycle Designer 9.0
I am creating a form that requires City, State and Zip. I need to make sure that users do not put City, State and Zip into the City field; which someone so nicely pointed out to me as a problem with the form. Anyway, what I am looking for is a way to force the user to only be able to enter alpha characters into the City text field. I had glanced at the "Validation Patterns" OOTB functionality but I could not find anything listed that would complete the requirement.
Thank you,

How do I reset a mandatory field after it has been filled in?
I've set the required fields on a form to have a highlighted background colour on validation when they haven't been filled in. The problem is, when a user does fill in the field, the highlighting remains and is visible to the recipient when the form is emailed. How can I get the highlighting to dynamically turn off when the field has data?
Thanks!

How to show current page number in formcalc?
I have a client who won't allow JavaScript in their forms for security reasons. I'm trying to convert the JS I've used to work with FormCalc instead, but I don't have much experience with FC and I'm stuck at the first hurdle.
I want to display the current and total pages in the master page and I've changed the generated code to use FormCalc and changed to use the dollar reference, but the form doesn't render the current page number.
Here's the code
return.#pageSet[0].Restricted.CurrentPageNumber::ready:layout - (FormCalc, client)
//Doesn't work, even though it's copied from the reference material
this.rawValue = xfa.layout.page($)
// also tried
$ = xfa.layout.page($)
return.#pageSet[0].Restricted.NumberofPages::ready:layout - (FormCalc, client)
//Works
this.rawValue = xfa.layout.pageCount()
Any and all help would be really appreciated
