I am fairly familiar with Acrobat. But, I know that I can not populate an image thru a drop-down menu in Acrobat. So I am now trying to do this using LiveCycle. I have not used LiveCycle before, but after doing research I am pretty sure that I can do it in this program. Can someone please help me? I found a link and it gave me a code, but it didn't work. I need help!
 
What I am trying to achieve is... Adding a Furniture List into a drop-down menu and then my client will select the piece of furniture and the photo of that piece will populate. Can anyone please help me?

You certainly can do that in Acrobat. That is, have numerous images stored in a PDF and call them up by selecting a description from a combo box. There's a sample on the Acrobat 5 CD (dynamiclist.pdf) if you happen to have it. You can have document icon or icons stored in hidden buttons that you use to populate a visible button with the image/graphic you want.
