I have a name field... and I was wondering what are the steps needed to import the list of names into my Adobe Acrobat form? I read in another forum that I needed to save the file as an xml file... but was wondering how to get the data from the xml into the form...

Thanks for your help...

There are various ways and the exact method and code will depend on whether you created the form in Acrobat or LiveCycle Designer. Acrobat can import data from a tab delimited file, and FDF file or an XFDF (XML) file as well as through Adobe Data Base Connection (ADBC) from a data base or Excel data base or a data object. Many, but not all, of these options are also available to LiveCycle Designer.
