LiveCycle Designer discontinued for standalone purchase?
Went to buy another license and the store (here in the US at least)
just takes you to an Adobe page of yada yada about ADEP - and even gets the version wrong (ES3, not ES4)
http://www.adobe.com/solutions/customer-experience/enterprise-platform .html
What gives? We should be able to buy it for $299 according to the previous page.
Adobe are really dropping the ball when it comes to Designer - if they think everyone is going to go over to FormsCentral, they're wronig. Both FC and Acrobat are underpowered when it comes to being a dedicated forms design tool, and they seem oblivous to the fact that LC Designer is (IMHO and judging by the traffic on this forum) way far the best option and most popular.

Form appears blank when submitted
I recently ran into an issue with a form newly created in Adobe Livecycle where the data from each of the form fields is erased when the user submits the form via email (as a pdf). The form itself is quite simple with 7 text fields, 2 date fields, and a button to submit the form via desktop email application. There is no JavaScript or FormCalc scripting.
I am using Adobe Licecyle Designer ES 8.2 on Windows 7. I have created several of these forms in the past with no such issues. Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Brandon

Controlling end-user menu interaction
Hi,
I created a form with an embedded reference table (spans two pages) that the user can access through a show/hide button. I don't want them to leave the table displayed when they save or print the form. In my form, I provide print and save buttons in my form ( I inserted a script that hides the table if the user clicks print or save).
However, if the user chooses to print or save through the Reader menu, the table (if displayed) remains displayed and /or prints. Is there any way that I can fix this easily?
Thanks!

Livecycle Designer (LCD) 8 (Acrobat Pro 9 - Acrobat Pro 11)
I purshased Pro 9 and then purchased the full version of Pro 11 sometime later. Now I can't use LCD to work on the previously created forms.
I have tried to reinstall Pro 9 again so that I have access to LCD again but it wont install with Pro 11.
Additionally, I am told you can't install Pro 9 and than install Pro 11 with 9 either.
Is there a way to install LCD 8 with Pro 11. May be a standalone version of LCD 8.

Error Message with FormCalc
Hello,
I am a beginner with Form Calculations and am trying to average the score (Total Traits Score) (from a set of four radio fields (with five buttoms each (1-5))) with another input (Cultural Fit) - Also a radio field with buttons 1-5). I have been able to figure out how to set up a numberical field to calculate the average of the first four radio fields (the Total traits Score), but now I need to average that with the fifth radio field (Cultural Fit) and I am receiving the following error message. Any advice on why this is happening and how to fix it?

Forms Suite using Livecycle
I am a member of an Urban Search and Rescue team. (9/11, Pentagon, etc). We have a massive number of forms that must be filled out prior to deployment to a disaster site. These forms include "registering" and tracking 80 members of the team along with their information, cell phone, med history, meds, etc. I am trying to design a suite of forms that matches the federal forms, but when a change is made on the "Master" registration form, the new data cascades and replaces the old entry. Can Livecycle do that AND does the data entry person have to have some verson of Adobe Pro to complete the form???? Or will Reader do???

Calculations
I am creating a form to track mileage and one of the drop downs has the most common locations with the miles listed. I set a binding for the miles as well. What I would like to do is have another box that will have the binding number appear. The table below shows what I am looking for. What would I need to do so that the Miles column auto populates with what is in the destination binding? I also have the destination dropdown as a manual entry so users can add anything else.
Thank you for your help
| Destination | Miles | Trips | Total Mileage |
|---|---|---|---|
| New York - 1 Mile | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| Buffalo - 2 Miles | 2 | 1 | 2 |

Not getting the values
Hello. I have made several very basic forms (using Designer ES2), but have run into a new problem. When I 'Merge data files into spreadsheet' from Adobe Acrobat Pro, only two of my bindings are being exported. This is a very basic form consisting of 1 numeric data field (working), a date field (working) and numerous radio buttons (none working, at all). I created this form the same way as all my previous forms. I know there is a way to allow/dis-allow data to be exported to a .csv file, but I never learned how and can't figure out the right search terms to come up with the answer. It seems like a simple problem, but all I can find are complicated answers.
Any help is much appreciated!
Edit: The values from previously functioning forms and being exported on some computers, but not all. Suggestions for why this may be happening? In old and new forms, the Data Binding option in LiveCycle is all Use Name(), as I believe is appropriate.

Filling in forms
I've created a simple form for users to fill in. Its not complex, however, when I send them the form via e-mail or they download it from my website they cannot fill in the fields.
Is it static instead of dynamic? I'm sure there is a simple fix.
Thanks?

Complie to Adobe Form Trackers Together
Hi,
I just had my computer updated from XP to Windows 7, and my Adobe capabilities are all jacked up now. I have two Adobe Tracker forms that need to compiled into one and I can't seem to figure out how to accomplish this. I need to re-establish my form distribution system, and I don't want to lose the past data.

Standard Message Box does not appear when I script a field to be mandatory
I am trying to create some code (Javascript) to say if the Contact # is Null then make the 2 fields below mandatory. This code works, the only problem is that it does not put up the Standard message "First name: cannot be left Blank that I would get if I just did this in the Designer tool itself.
When I run the form, I make sure that the Contact # is empty and then I make sure either the First Name (Favor) or Last Name (Fanam) is empty. Based on which one is empty it should say "????" cannot be left blank. If both are empty then it can just put up the message for the first one. If I click around enough on the form then eventually it appears, but not right away. I have this code in a Button Click. Does anyone know of a way I can get the standard message to appear right away if the Contact # is null? If I do this in the designer tool itself (i.e., not scripting) then it works, but I need to do this via scripting because it has to evaluate if Contact # is null first.
var lv_contactno = xfa.resolveNode("xfa.form.data.MainSubform.Contact02Subform.CNTCTNODR PDWN2").rawValue; if (lv_contactno !=null) {
xfa.resolveNode("data.MainSubform.Contact02Subform.FAVOR").mandatory = "error";
xfa.resolveNode("data.MainSubform.Contact02Subform.FANAM").mandatory = "error";
}

Issues with LiveCycle ES4 - "Distribute Form" greyed out and "email button" not functioning
Bought this software on 8/1/13.
Designed my first form, "saved to repository" and proceeded to test. The email function for whatever reason does not work. Went back and examined the properties to the button, I have it set up correctly. In fact the XMS format works perfect, but I want the form to come via PDF when emailed. This feature is not coming through on email.
I am not sure if the above two issues are related however I did read that in the stand-alone software, the "distribute form" is not offerred which I wonder if this the reason it is greyed out.
Can anyone help me work through the "email button" issue?

Issue saving PDF opened via an Outlook email link
We have a LiveCycle XFA form that contains a "silent save" trusted function using doc.saveAs().
Users complete the form, save it, and e-mail it as an attachment with the JavaScript submitForm() function. One of the people who processes the form opens the e-mail, assigns specific processing duties to other people in the chain, and closes/saves the PDF file to a folder on our network. These other processors can open the document, carry out their assignments, click check boxes to indicate progress, and save the file back to the network location. The document uses app.mailMsg() to send a status report to everyone working the project.
No problem with this system, works fine - but I'd like to address one inconvenience by including a link to the file's location in the status e-mails. The idea is to click the link to open the file. I've successfully written script to accomplsh that. The problem is that the "silent save (doc.SaveAs) fails when the file is opened via the Outlook link. I get the "file may be read-Only" error message: "The file may be read-only, or another user may have it open. Please save the document with a different name or in a different folder."
I assume there is a step I'm overlooking somewhere, but I just can't figure out what. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Dynamic text field
I am using Livecycle ES 2 & 4. Why does text field content not flow onto new page as required. Subform is set as flowable & allow page breaks within content, table is allow page breaks within content, rows are allow page breaks within content, Cell is expand to fit & allow multiple lines. If the data fills more than a page it flows over footer (which is outside of content area) & won't flow onto new page.
