Hello,
 
I am a newbie to creating PDF forms and have already run into an issue. If someone could give me a little help on this one I would really appreciate it.
 
I have a combo box that has 5 Choices in it. When selection A is chosen I need to populate a text field with a percentage to then calculate with a 3rd field.
 
Combo Text Field
1 ------- 0.8%
2 ------- 0.6%
3 ------- 0.4%
4 ------- 0.3%
5 ------- 0.2%
 
What do I need to do to automate the field population from the combo box?
 
Thanks in Advance,
lr

The implimentation details depend on which forms technology you are using, AcroForm (build
t with Acrobat) or XFA (built with LiveCycle Designer).

For the AcroForm Solution see this article:
