I have a form users with reader only are completing, and of course they are not used to being able to save a form. I was trying to add a regular button to the form, so they could see it, and click it merely to leave them into the file save process.

I was trying to use: App.ExecMenuItem("SaveAs");

but its not working, can someone help me get this working?

Thanks

I found this in the scripting manual its javascript.

"In LiveCycle Designer, the file must be saved at the application level. These scripts are examples of saving at the application level:

app.executeMenuItem("SaveAs");
or
var myDoc = event.target; myDoc.saveAs();

"

The section in the scripting reference was,
"JavaScript objects from Acrobat supported in LiveCycle Designer"
this item was near the bottom.

Hope this helps.
