If you're using an AcroForm then you'll want to investigate the ADBC plug-in that allows Javascript in PDF to communicate with a database through SQL. For more information on ADBC visit: [url=http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/]http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/[/url]
For LiveCycle, you'll need to create a data connection to your form, then the Data View palette will display a hierarchy view of each data source. The top nodes in the hierarchy represent each data connection and display the name that you assigned when you created the connection. After you create a data connection, you need to bind the data to the fields in the form design.
Hope this helps, Lori
