At this time there is no communication between an embedded flash and Acrobat JavaScript.

Since you are using multimedia I have to assume that the Text Fields you're talking about are AcroForm fields. Database connectivity for AcroForms is handled through the ADBC object. Read about it. You aught to be able to find some examples on the internet by doing a google search on "Acrobat JavaScript ADBC object"
