This tutorial demonstrates how to setup and connect to an Access 2010 Database using Adobe LiveCycle Forms through an ODBC connection.

Code used:
xfa.sourceSet.DataConnection.first();  (assuming the Data Connection name is “DataConnection”)

Here is a tutorial on the basics of using Signature fields in Adobe LiveCycle.  It also covers how to “lock” a form when a digital signature is applied, and how to leave some fields (such as a print or email button) unlocked.

Follow up tutorial to Master Page Basics demonstrating more advanced features such as: custom page sizes, header objects that reference form data, and form flow to specific master pages.

Code placed in the ready :  layout event of “FORM.#pageSet[0].Page2.txtCustomer” & “FORM.#pageSet[0].Page2.txtSSN” fields of Master Page 2:
this.rawValue = FORM.Main.txtCustomer.rawValue;

Modified code used in the “FORM.#pageSet[0].Page2.txtSSN” field to carry over the SSN formatting from the Main page:
this.rawValue = FORM.Main.txtSSN.formattedValue;

This tutorial demonstrates my method of avoiding the use of JavaScript popups in LiveCycle forms when the form requires special user input that a popup window would normally be used.

This method arose out of my frustration with the “Warning: JavaScript Window” message that Adobe doesn’t allow to be removed from popups called using the xfa.host.messageBox method.
