I have a combo box in my form. I want to have user choose from the dropdown list and fill another field based on what they chosed. For example, I have 3 options: A, B, C, in my dropdown box (combo box). If user picked A, I will fill the address field with "Address 1", if user choose "B", I will fill the address with "Address 2". In other development tools like Visual Basic, I can put the code in "Click" event of the comb box. But I could find any similar event in Acrobat. Anyone could help me?

Thanks

Hi fanchunrong,

Here is a tutorial from the Learning Center on changing other fields based on combobox selection ( including download sample fields)-

There are many more tutorials on scripting topics in the Learning Center so browse around for other topics that may apply to your form projects.

Hope this helps,
