I am using Adobe LiveCycle Designer to create an interactive PDF timecard. I am currently using date drop down calendars to separately select Monday, Tuesday..... Is there a way to have the Tuesday through Sunday to automatically calculate one Monday is selected?
 
Thanks in advance,
Mike

I'm not sure exactly what it is that your are asking about, but it sounds like you want to do a kind of week-day (or work-day) calculator.

The first thing you need to do is learn about using dates in calculations. Read the first couple of parts in this series of articles:

Here's an example calculator. This is an AcroForm, but the date calculations are exactly the same for a LC Form.
