Submit Form Button on Message Bar

Hello -

I've developed a form in Live Cycle where the button to e-mail is button with this Java Script:
event.target.submitForm({cURL:"mailto:?subject=Time Card&body=Weekly time card attached",cSubmitAs:"PDF",cCharset:"utf-8"}); This is because the form needs to be e-mailed to the supervisor instead of just one person.

After the form is distributed and the user opens it up in Reader there is a purple message bar with a submit form button. This button submits the form to ME.

Is there a way to remove the submit form button from the message bar or change its behavior? Or a way to eliminate the message bar completely?

Thanks

To hide the Bar open Acrobat or Reader, press Ctrl + K to open the preferences.
Choose the tab "forms" and activate the checkbox for hiding the bar. voila!

You have to do this in every Acrobat/Reader where you don't want the bar to appear!!!

But I will not be able to change the preferences for on every computer that will open and view the form I am creating.
