Hi,
I imported MS Word document to Acrobat Reader 7.0 Professional. I added form fields in Acrobat designer, but I can't add any Javascript. The options in Advanced-> Javascript are disabled (except Debugger). When I open different pdf, the options are enabled. Javascript is enabled in the Edit -> Document Preferences. When I try to add Javascript through Thumbnails-> Page Properties, I also don't suceed. The Add button is disabled. Do you have any idea how I can enable the javascript?
Thanks in advance.

My Product Information:
Reader 7.0.0, Windows

You need to add your JavaScripts in Designer. All Designer forms are *locked* when you open them in Acrobat and you can't change the document.
