Merge Form Data to Spreadsheet Problem

$

I have always been able to export Livecycle form data to a spreadsheet using Acrobat. Now that my version has been updated from version 10.0.0 to 10.1.9, when i export the data, I get a column of gliberish instead of the form data. I tried another employees computer that has not been updated to 10.1.9 and is still at 10.0.0 and the same files exported correctly. The Acrobat update stopped this process from working and they do not leave any method for me to back up to the previous version. Has anyone lse experinced same problem? Is there a fix or workaround for this?

e-mail button changes email address when submitting

$

Hello,

 

For some reason when I try to e-mail my form when I hit the submit by e-mail button in the Send Form that pops up the e-mail address that the form is supposed to be sent to is different than what I have set it up to be on the form. I have tried creating the e-mail submit button using the e-mail button from the standard library and by using a regular button and changing it to a submit button, but it does not make a difference.

 

Can anyone tell me how to get it to not change the e-mail address when I try to submit my form? The e-mail address I have entered it to be sent to is: tamara@psychologistsassociation.ab.ca but when I go to submit when testing my form it adds an "a" onto the end of association so the e-mail address is changed to: tamara@psycholoigstsassocationa.ab.ca

 

this means that when I submit it the form does not go to my inbox because the email address is wrong, even though the e-mail address is entered correctly in the Object palette in LiveCycle Designer.

 

Thanks

Field's flowing content adds empty page

$

I have a multi-page form. Pages 2-4 are lists of text fields which some have hidden field that appear when necessary. The text fields are enclosed in subforms and the entire page is a Flowed subform. That all works fine.

 

However, when page 2's content moves down onto page 3, what was page 3 become page 4 and page 3 is now mostly a blank page. Is there a way to have the fields on page 3 move down only the amount of space that is needed rather going on to a whole new page?

 

Thanks,

Issue with different master pages, and flowing content between them.

$

Hi, I'm hoping that I'm just missing something minor in the form I'm creating.

 

I have a form that allows you to add instances of a section, and also hide and show different subforms. This happens across two types of master pages, one with a header and instructions, and one that has a larger content area and a much smaller header. What I would like to happen is that when the subform is un-hidden with the checkbox, and another nested instance is added, that it flows onto the second master page. Right now, it flows onto another copy of the first master page.

I think the reason it's doing this, is that in the design view there is too much content for one page so the subform is already flowing onto the next page. Perhaps there's a way to add all the content onto one page of the design view, so that it flows onto the second master page when I choose the pagination option of the content area?

 

I've tried changing Pagination options on both the content area and the encapsulating subforms, with no luck.

 

Here is a Dropbox link to the form (please excuse my messy naming conventions, I'm planning on going in and fixing it all):

Thanks for reading my question, and in advance for any advice you can provide.

I am currently evaluating the ES4 product for accessibility features.  I require the Quick Fix 1100.002 so that I can verify the accessibility in Acrobat Professional.  (The language setting is always failing).

 

I have logged in to Adobe, but NO WHERE, NO WHERE can I download this fix.  I DO NOT have a support purchase as I am only evaluating this product.  I hope someone can assist me.

I have a button that I want to make a Windows error sound when certain conditions are met. I've tried variations of xfa.host.beep() (e.g. xfa.host.beep("1"), xfa.host.beep("2")), but they never generate any sound. I tried both Acrobat and Reader (11.0.09) static and dynamic forms.

Determine if end date is after start date

I have 2 date fields on a form.  When I click the submit button I am trying to make sure the end date is after the start date.

 

Here is the code I am using:

     var sDate = Date.parse(BackgroundInformation.Background.CheckingDateStart.rawValue);

      var eDate = Date.parse(BackgroundInformation.Background.CheckingDateEnd.rawValue);

      xfa.host.messageBox("Start Date:" + BackgroundInformation.Background.CheckingDateStart.rawValue);

      xfa.host.messageBox("eDate:"+eDate+" sDate:"+sDate);

      if(sDate > eDate)

{
   valid = false;
   fieldName +="Start Date is greater than End Date";
}

 

The message box shows the start date as 2014-10-30 but sDate is Nan.

 

I have tried:

     var eDate = new Date(BackgroundInformation.Background.CheckingDateEnd.rawValue);

      var sDate = new Date(BackgroundInformation.Background.CheckingDateStart.rawValue);

 

and when I display sDate is says "Invalid Date"

 

Any ideas?

bindItems and SOM

$

I am trying to bind a drop down list (choiceList) to a list of records in my data set. My original XML looked like this:

 

<bindItems ref="$record.parent.People.Person[*].Identifier.Name" labelRef="$" valueRef="$"/>

 

But it returned no values. I played around and with alternative ways of getting my data, and settled on this:

 

<bindItems ref="$data.root.People.Person[*].Identifier.Name" labelRef="$" valueRef="$"/>

 

But what is weird is that within a scripting context:

 

xfa.record.parent.resolveNodes("Ballot[*].BallotIdentifier.BallotName")

 

Works just fine. Do SOM expressions not support the parent property in a bind context?

I have a form that needs to display Text Block 1 only if the "Total" is up to $499.99." If $500 or greater, I need to hide Text Block 1 and show Text Block 2.

 

Is there any way I can do this?

 

Thanks.

Adobe changes my numeric field to include commas when validation fails

Adobe changes my numeric field to include commas when validation fails. My numeric validation setting is num{zzzzzzz9.99}. I want my numeric field to display as 99999999.00, no commas and only to have 2 decimals places. I added this validation to the Display, Edit, Validation and Data tabs under the validation pattern dialog box.

 

When validation fails, adobe changes the display of the field to include commas and drops the decimal places:

 

999,999,999

 

How can I prevent this from happening? Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

 

I've also added a change event to the field as well:

 

\\only allows numbers and period.

 

if (xfa.event.newText.match(/[^0-9.]/))

 

{

 

xfa.event.change = "";

 

}

 

\\only allows 11 characters to be entered.

 

var maxLength = 11;

 

if(xfa.event.newText.length >maxLength)xfa.event.change = "";

Duplicate Lines after Export to .xml and import into Excel

$

Hi,

I created a read-out form for a radiologic study. This form is filled out 150 times by three different radiologists. I collect the data which is emailed back to my as a .pdf in a Dataset.pdf. When I export the Data to an ".xml-File" and afterwards import it into Excel, it gives me severeal duplicate lines. Sometimes the data is distributed over 2-3 different rows, sometimes the exact same data is duplicated in 2-4 consecutive rows, etc. I don't see a pattern. If I export it as a .csv File, there is no problem.

Has anybody had the same problems? What do I have to do, that at the end in Excel I have one row for each dataset emailed back to me?

If necessary I can upload the form and publish the Link.

It's not really too important as I can still extract Data using the .csv export. I would just like to understand, why it doesn't work with .xml Export.

Thank you for your help,

Olivio

I hope I can explain this clearly. I have a repeating subform form on page 1 that ask for child's name. Later in the form I need to ask other questions regarding the children. What I would like to happen is for each child listed on page 1, it would populate the Child's name in the child's information subform on page 3.

 

Thanks you for any assistance.

UTF8 error in browser

I have designed a PDF form designed in Livecycle designer. The form has a submit button which invokes a servlet. The servlet receives the request and send a response in "text/html UTF-8". If have no browser or IE open when submitting the form, I receive a response that the form has been either successfully submitted or not. However, if I have Firefox open when Submitting, I get an Adobe Reader dialog box that says "An error occurred during the submit process. Cannot process content of type text/html utf-8".
When I look in the database, the form is successfully submitted. How do I make the adobe pop up to disappear and print the confirmation.

Help !!!!
