In order to have a more dynamic form, I have taken the project to LiveCycle. And of course, the JS needs to be changed.

I have tried this where ClassCode1 is the combo box and DescriptionRow1 is the desired field I want to auto fill:

in the combo box, with Show : mouseExit and the Object Field type is combo box
AND in the text field with Show : mouseExit and the Object Field type is text field - both

if (this.rawValue = '0042'
DescriptionRow1.value = 'Landscape';
else (this.rawValue = '3724'
DescriptionRow1.value = 'Millwright'; //with no result, and

if (this.rawValue == '0042'
DescriptionRow1.value == 'Landscape';
else (this.rawValue == '3724'
DescriptionRow1.value == 'Millwright'; //with no result, and

if (ClassCode1.rawValue == '0042'
DescriptionRow1.value == 'Landscape';
else (ClassCode1.rawValue == '3724'
DescriptionRow1.value == 'Millwright'; //with no result

Thanks for your help.

You need to close your logical statement for the 'if' statement with a closing ')'.

There is also an 'els if' statement. Again you need to close your logical statement with a closing ')'.

The equality comparison operator is '=='.

The set value operator is '='.

What error messages are you getting?

Thanks, I have adjusted the script to this and it works.

if (ClassCode1.rawValue == '0042')
DescriptionRow1.rawValue = 'Landscape';
else if(ClassCode1.rawValue == '3724')
DescriptionRow1.rawValue = 'Millwright';

I also changed the event to a calculate and it goes much faster that using mouse.exit
