Changing the email that was intially set up for my interactive forms

All right I will try and explain this the best I can.

This is the first time I have used adobe acrobat pro 9 to create interactive forms. A client wanted a few test forms created so that they could decided whether they would be useful. We of course decided to set up a dummy email account for the forms to be sent.

Well good news is - the client likes the forms. The bad news - I can figure out how to change the email address we originally set up.

I really do not want to redo the entire forms just to change the email address. This may be a very obvious fix, but I have tried everything and nothing has worked. If any can help me I would greatly appreciate it. I need to get these forms back to the client.

Did you set up a button on the form for the users to click to send the email? If you used Acrobat to create the form (as opposed to LiveCycle Designer), open the form in Acrobat and use the Select Object tool to select the button and bring up the Button Properties window for the button. Select the Options tab and there is probably a "Submit a form" action set up for the Mouse Up event. If you select the action and edit it, you would normally specify the email address of the recipient using a mailto type URL which you can change.

If this doesn't work, you'll need to provide more information about how you've set up the submit action.
