How do you populate multiple forms with common info? I need the "name" field to populate 20 forms at the same time. I can do so within the same form but not across forms.

The samples provided on the Acrobat distribution CD include the PFN, Personal Field Name, example that for users of a full version of Acrobat or Extended Reader Rights are enabled on the PDF form users could import and export FDF data. Or one could use the Global data object or write JavaScript to open and populate the other forms' fields.
