I would like to Print a blank form, even if the user has already populated fields on the form. So, what I would like to do is loop through all of the fields on the form and clear them out, so that I can print a blank form. I'm not sure how I can get all of the fields on the form. Can you help me out?

Your best bet would be to add a Reset Form button to the form with the Button tool:

1. Select Tools: Forms.

2. Choose the Button tool and click drag to create a button on the form.

3. Among the Properties is Actions. Click the tab to select it.

4. From the Select Action pop-up menu, choose Reset a Form.

5. Click Add. Leave the settings in the dialog box that appears as is (though you can use it to choose specific fields to reset). Click OK.

Additonally, if you'd like to, you can set the button so that it does not print. Click General, Select Form Field: Visible but does not print.
