Re: Form Field Properties #0001

Hello Everyone,

I'm fairly new at using LiveCycle Designer; actually I feel like a bloody novice.

Anyway - I am designing a form that needs to have a field for driver licenses. I've no issue with the alphanumeric allowances or the limitation of 8 characters (CA license) but I am stuck with something else.

How do I set the form to allow ONLY 1 alpha character (A-Z) at the beginning and then restrict it to 7 numeric characters at the end (0-9)?

For example: A1234567 < - In this manner.

Thank you in advance for all of your collective efforts and help.

Angie -

Thank you for your response. I do appreciate your time and effort.

I actually tried using the A9999999 pattern prior to my post but it did not restrict the form to just 1 alpha character. I continued to type all letters until the 8 character limit was reached.

I think you are correct in that I will need to just write a script which would be more robust to meet the specific requirements of said form.

Thanks again!

Best Regards,
