Hi friends,

I am working with aCrobat forms for the first time, and it is fairly straight forward so far, but I have a question I cannot figure out on my own.

I am building a form that includes an address field. I would like to use a drop down box to populate the field with an address, but the address is on several lines.

Is there a way to create a combo box that has several lines of text, or is it limited to a single line? Alternatively, is there a way to populate other fields given a selected value in a combo box?

I'll continue to research and experiment, but if anyone knows this one, please let me know!

TIA

Regards,
Nedstar1
 
I have never seen a "multi-line" combo box. You should definitely be able to script, though, an "if this=x, that=y" functionality through JavaScript.

I haven't done it, though. If you get stuck, email me the PDF (or post a link), and I'll take a crack at it.
