Can anyone point me to a good addInstance tutorial? For whatever reason, I just cannot get these to work when I build them, no matter how simple I make it. My brain just isn't getting the concept and I need a good tutorial to work through. Video would be good.

Thanks

Hi hattg,

This on-demand e-seminar goes over using addInstance but also covers much more on LiveCycle forms-
https://admin.adobe.acrobat.com/_a200985228/p87746471/?launcher=false&fcsContent=true&pbMode=normalA full set of video training delivered in short topical segments on LiveCycle Designer PDF forms ( quite a few on creating and setting up repeatable subforms) is also offered at www.pdfscripting.com but it is a paid for membership site. A full lsiting of videos can be viewed here (scroll down a ways for the LiveCycle topics)-

Hope this helps,

I have seen this one before. The problem I am having, is as long as I follow the tutorial exactly, it's fine. But if I take that same layout and change what is in it, add my own fields, the add button won't work anymore. I get repeating fields when I tell it to start with 3. I get 3. But it won't add more. This seems to be my issue whenever I try and use the addInstance.
