Hello Everyone
Anyone know how to set password or protect specific fields in the form.
For example:
If i've an appraisal form and it's contains deferent fields some of them for an employees and other for Supervisors. So i want to distribute the form to our staff. But i don't want employees can write on the Supervisor field and if they try that the acrobat asked them a password.
Hope some one can help me ASAP.
Sincerely,,

Go to your field's Properties, Actions tab, add a new OnBlur Action, select Execute JavaScript and paste the code into the window. In this sample code the correct password is "123". You can adjust that if you wish (but don't remove the double-quotes).

I can't help you if you don't provide more information. What does "doesn't work" mean?
Are there error messages in the console (Ctrl+J)?

First of all, I didn't say anything about the Validate event.
To achieve that you need to create a field to switch to in case the user enters the wrong password. Let's say it's called "outside". Then you enter this code as the On Focus action of your protected field (I've moved the correct password to the first line of the code in this one):
var correctPassword = "123";
resp = app.response("Enter the password:");
if (resp==null || resp!=correctPassword) getField("outside").setFocus();

i mean i've an appraisal form contains on 25 topic as following for example:
1- Performance 5. 4. 3. 2. 1. 0. NA.
2- Attendance 5. 4. 3. 2. 1. 0. NA.
3- ....
4- ....
Until 25-
the end of form there is a result from these points 5. 4. 3. ...etc.
my question is i already did how to + the points in specific field but i want to protect this field as following method:
-When the employee try to show the result from the specific field it's ask him to enter password to show the result that already calculated but already hidden.
Hope you could understand me because my English isn't much good.
Thanks a lot for your help sir.

if (event.value!="") {
resp = app.response("Enter the password:");
if (resp==null || resp!="123") event.target.value="";
