Unable to get field name/value of opened PDF with Folder Level script.

$

Hello,

I am trying to get the value of a field from a menu item. I am using this script from the Folder Level so on load I can add the menu item.

However, I am unable to get the value of my field.

 

Here is my code:

 

function GetFieldValue()
{  var firstName = First_Name.rawValue;  app.alert(firstName);
}

app.addMenuItem({cName:"-", cParent:"Help", cExec:" "});
app.addMenuItem({cName:"Get Field Value", cParent:"Help", cExec:"GetFieldValue();"});

 

This is the error I get:

ReferenceError: First_Name is not defined

4:Menu:Exec

But when I try the same script from a button click, it works perfectly!

 

form1.#subform[0].btnGetFields::click - (JavaScript, client)  var firstName = First_Name.rawValue;  app.alert(firstName);

 

This is how my form looks like in the Hierarchy.

 

Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you!
