I would like to know if there is a way to change the user entered-required property of an object dynamically. i want to say something like:

if(radioButton1 == "1")

{

objectPropertyRequired = "Required";

}//end if

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Yes, but you shold include some code the the "not equal to 1" situaton.

You will also have to reference the 'object' with the correct object reference and the property is 'manditory'. You might also want to create a 'mandatroy Message'.

if(CheckBox1 == 1) thenTextField1.mandatory = "error"TextField1.mandatoryMessage = "TestTield1 is a manditory"xfa.host.setFocus("TextField1")elseTextField1.mandatory = "disabled"endif

Ok so that didn't work. Can you give me a working example with say a radio button with yes/no and say a dropdown list and an email button. So if you click yes on the radio button then you won't be able to email as adobe will shoot back an error that the field is mandatory. I tried your example and cant' get it to work.

Also, I shouldn't say it didn't work :) I can't get it to work so maybe you got it to work but I can't seem to get it to work no matter how I try it.
