As I said, if your drop client correctly emulates what Windows Explorer does I don't see why it should not work. But clearly it was not tested with anything except the real Windows Explorer. And I do...

No, it has to be a plug-in. An experienced developer is recommended. Plug-ins in Windows are *.API files, to be installed to suitable folders in Acrobat. If you want to run in Adobe Reader (the free...

I suspect you may not be a programmer. This is the Acrobat SDK forum, and the Acrobat SDK is used only by programmers. The OP wanted to create his or her own programming solution. This would indeed...

This should work. There is some code missing from your sample, so I don'tknow how arValues was defined. This should be dim'ed as an array ofStrings. On Mon, Jan 26, 2015 at 10:07 AM, DarrellDoesData...

Yes, I've dimensioned arValues() as string.I used the exact same code on a test form where the field names were simpler (eg, "fname", "lname") and it worked fine. Does it have anything to do with the...

Your field names look as if it is a form used in LiveCycle Design (XFA form). But if so, you are using the wrong JavaScript method. getField is from the Acrobat JavaScript API rather than the Designer...

I just read up on XFA vs AcroForms and it's definitely not XFA. The form was published by the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and the govt uses standard AcroForms. It seems like everywhere I...
