Auto-populate address from a name

I have created an interactive fillable form in Adobe Acrobat X.  I would ideally like to be able to begin typing a person's name, have the form recognize this person's name, and autopopulate their contact information (phone number, address, etc.)
I assume I will need to create some sort of data file for the PDF to pull from.  I have changed the preferences to allow Auto-Complete at the "basic" level, but this still requires me to at least know the first part of the address or phone number to auto-complete one field at a time.
Can you please explain how to create a data file and/or how to autopopulate the information?
I appreciate your time and assistance!

I think I am also looking for a solution like yours.
I have a drop down menu identifying a manager's name. At the bottom of the form I have a text box I'd like to automatically fill in the managers email address corresponding to the selected manager in the first field.
Box1= Job tittle, manager's name
Box10=Box1 manager's email address.
Currently using:
Adobe X Pro
MacBook Pro 17" Unibody (2012)
Any suggestions would be great. Hopefully I can also use the same method to automatically change the Submit button "mailto" the proper manager selected if possible. but that's probably another discussion.
Thank you in advance to all!

  • Checkout: Auto Populate Billing from Shipping ?

    Hi,  I'm trying to cobble together a auto populate billing from shipping or vice versa,  and I've gotten this far with JS and added it to the register buy form, but it is supposed to go into the header, for which, in the module template, there is no access.  I'm sure I have some of it wrong, because I grabbed it from another site. Anyway, when I check the box for same as,  nothing happens.  I 'm wondering  if the script needs to be placed elsewhere and/or if the variables I am using are incorrect for BC ?  
    <script type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    function shipsame(form){
    if(form.sameasbilling.checked){
    form.ShippingAddress = form.BillingAddress;
    form.ShippingCity = form.BillingCity;
    form.ShippingState = form.BillingState;
    form.ShippingCountry = form.BillingCountry;
    form.ShippingZip = form.BillingZip;
    else{
    form.BillingAddress= "";
    form.ShippingCity = "";
    form.ShippingState = "";
    form.ShippingCountry = "";

    TIA,
    Jeff

    A button would only work once. So if the user went back and changed the billing address the change would not be reflected in the shipping address.
    With a check box one can use a calculation script in the shipping address to check if the billing address should be copied over.

    hello Guys,

    until now i have been manually entering the delivery details on each order.
    is there any way to have this populate the fields on these orders when i am in the backend.  it seems a bit strange that i have to enter the address details for each order when i have the customers details stored in our data base.
    any help would be appreciated.

    I'm looking to Auto-populate address fields after selecting a name from a drop-down. iPad compatability not required. Most of my users will be using Acrobat Pro or Reader on a PC. I'm generating the files on Mac Abrobat X Pro.
    Is there an updated tutorial link someone knows about by chance? The above link no longer has a tutorial on it that I can see.
    Or, if anyone can direct me to a javascript or something that I can modify with my data list, that'd be great! I've been looking all over the place, and have been struggling to find something that looks like it would work the way I want it to. I need the data list to be self-contained inside the pdf doc, not sourced from an outside database.
    Thanks a bunch!

  • Auto populate forms from a database

    I'm new to LiveCycle and was wondering if there is a way to auto populate a form created in LiveCycle. Essentially, I have an Excel spreadsheet with a thousand or so entries. I'm looking to create a sort of cover page from all this data for each individual entry featuring name, address, etc. I can convert the spreadsheet to an XML file, but after that I get lost. Is there a way to set up a form so that it can autocomplete all of the fields using an XML file or is this something that I need to do manually?

    LiveCycle Forms is designed to accept a form template and an XML datastream and merge them together to provide a populated PDF that is interactive.  For a non-interactive version of the template LiveCycle Output would be utilized.  There are a number of methods to interact with LiveCycle but it sounds like the easiest method for you would be to use a watched folder where you would simply copy your XML files and LiveCycle will read the file and produce the PDF files.  To start use Workbench and create a process that uses the RenderPDFForm operation.  You might want to start with these http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/videotraining.html

  • How to auto populate data from one list in SharePoint 2007 into another list based on a key value?

    Hi,
    As a part of new requirement in my project I am supposd to work on SharePoint 2007. I have one List (BCExtract - Main list) with all data related to an Application (like ID, name, app manager RTO etc).
    I have created another list which has form to be filled by a user (with details about his/her applications). My requirement is that when the user enters AIT ID then the page should refresh (probably after hitting enter) and other details like Application
    name, RTO etc which is present in another list gets auto populated depending on the AIT ID (unique column) entered so reduce the burden on the user.
    Please suggest me how this can be done. I do not have permission for obtaining SharePoint Designer and I do not know JQuery. Infopath is ok but if this can be done through SharePoint 2007 alone then it would be great.
    Thanks....

    Hello,
    You can either use jquery/jaavscript or infopath form to achieve this. There is no default way to do this.
    I would suggest jquery because you can put script in newform/editfor.aspx page using content editor webpart. Refer this link for jquery:
    To get value from list:

    http://www.robertkuzma.com/2010/08/read-list-items-using-sharepoint-web-services-and-jquery/
    To set value in column:

    http://spservices.codeplex.com/discussions/468729
    If you use infopath form, then you need to create two data connection to get data from both lists. Later you can set value in fields based on selection using rule. This can be possible without code.

  • Can I use data entered in PDF form's field(s) to auto-populate Save As file name?

    Hello,
    I want to automate, as much as possible, the "Save As" process by using some of the data that the user entered in the fillable PDF form.
    For example, I want to include the user's First Name and Last Name that they entered in the form to be part of the saved file name.
    First Name: Bob
    Last Name: Smith
    Therefore, when you select to Save As part of the new file name will already have <BobSmith><today's date>.PDF
    Form was created using LiveCycle Designer 11
    PDF version: 1.7, Adobe Extension Level 8 (Acrobat X)
    Thanks for any information that you can share.
    Regards,
    Roch

    You should try the LiveCycle Designer forum, but from my experience with Acrobat forms it's not possible. What you can do is either save the file using the desired file name and path (without user interaction), if the script runs from a trusted context, or you can prompt the user with the desired file-name for the file, but not enforce them to use it, nor populate it into the Save As dialog itself.

  • Why can't I copy contacts' email address from their name card in lync 2010

    so here is the issue I have, when I need to copy someone's email addresses or their phone numbers, normally I will find them on lync, move the cursor on them, and their name card will show up, then I move cursor to their email address or their phone numbers,
    right click it, there will be an option to "copy", right? but sometimes, right clicking doesn't work. that copy option just won't pop up, this issue happens randomly, I need to restart lync, then it will work again. Also, there is one thing
    that's weird, after I restart lync, whatever I have copied in the clipboard will disappear, like if I press ctrl+c to copy something from word, then this issue happened, I restart lync, I can copy information in lync name card again, but all that
    content I copied does not exist in clipboard anymore, I press ctrl+v, there is nothing coming out.
     this is not a big problem, but it's really annoying, does anyone know why this issue happen and how to permanently? I tried to reinstall, does not work.
    this issues happens with both lync 2010 32 bit on 32 bit win7 and lync 2010 64 bit on win7 64 bit.

    Hi,
    Please try to delete Lync user profile and information in registry.
    The path of Lync user profile: <user profile>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Communicator\
    The path of Lync information in registry: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Communicator\[email protected]
    Please also make sure Lync client update to the latest version.

  • Can't send email or auto populate address field

    I don't send very many emails from my Blackberry, but I went to send one today, and realized that I can't.
    When I compose the email, and start to fill the address field in, it seems to heistate like it is searching the address book, but never actually completes the field.
    Then when I finish composing the email, and try to send the short menu doesn't even have an option to send, neither does the full menu.  My only options are Help, Select, Check Spelling, Clear Field, Save Draft, Delete, Flag for Follow Up, Add Bcc, attach contact, attach file, edit autotext, options, show symbols, switch applications, and close.
    I have tried power cycling the unit, and even pulled the battery and replaced it.
    Any clues?

    OK, I finaly solved it

    I had the same problem and here's how I solved it:
    In the message view, select options>general options. Set the "Show recent contacts when composing email" to "no". exit and save.
    I toggled back and forth between the yes and no setting, and the autolookup works fine when set to "no" and stops working when set to "yes". Everytime.
    Now, I'm not sure what the purpose of "show recent contact..." setting is. It doesn't do anything when set to "yes".

  • How to create Infopath form that auto populate data from one list to be fill by another user?

    hi.  I would like to ask, how to create form that fill by User A, for example, and then the User A assigned task to User B to complete the form. Next, the form will be approved by approver. May I know how to do
    that? and if possible, I do not want to use any programming code.
    Azuaniza Ariffin

    Hi,
    If your SharePoint environment supports InfoPath Forms, then you can customize the form and add rules to make the list items as read only when user A submits the form.
    you can then write a form load event to check the logged in user using username() function. This logic can be implemented in variety of ways, like setting a flag when User A submits the form, or storing user A username in a form variable etc., else comparing
    User A and User B values within form Load event.
    Another way of doing this is using Views or grouping all of the User A fields within a section etc.,
    The above would take care of Form logic, and for the workflow, you can use SharePoint designer to create a custom workflow, where it will run on onItemCreate and onItemChange events.
    The logic for workflow would be if the form Submitted for the first time, the workflow will start and send an email to User B, and when User B submits the Data then onItemChange change event will start the workflow to send an email to approver to approve
    the data.

  • Tabular form - how to auto populate a column with the user name

    Hi,
    I have a tabular form with 3 columns - (customer name, notes, user). my users are allowed to enter customer details in the notes section... as soon as the user completes notes section and save the form, I want "USER" field to be auto populate with the user name so that I may track activity by the user...
    Please advice how to accomplish it...
    thanks in advance

    Hi,
    After user saves the forms that means commit to the database, so you can simply write a trigger like:
    CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER "AUDIT"
    before insert or update on TABLE1
    for each row
    begin
    :new.user_field := nvl(v('APP_USER'),user);
    end;

  • Dropdowns based on previous selection and auto populate

    Good day All;
    With any luck, this will be the final touches I will need to get this form ready for approval.
    Anyway…. This is what I am trying to do. When using dropdown lists, I would like to be able to select from a group of managers depending on what “Section” was selected. It gets a little more crazy (to me anyway).
    Example: There a 3 divisions with 1 director per division.
                     Each division has 4 or more sections with a manager for each section.
    So that being said, what I would like the user to be able to do is:
    If user selects Division “1” the “director” field will auto populate with “Director 1” name.
    Next, when the user selects a “Section” from the dropdown, they will only be presented with a list of sections that belong to “Director 1”. When they make the selection, the “manager” is auto populated with the manager’s name…….
    Please let me know if I have gone a wee bit over the deep end with this.
    I hope this made sense??? ;>))
    Thanks All
    Chomp

    Thanks both. I have been thrown a wee bit of a curve ball as the powers that be woul
    d like to rethink what this form will be used for.
    Thanks Again

  • Tiger Mail to Leopard Mail - Auto Complete Addresses?

    Hi there,
    I've recently backed up my friend's complete Home folder from Tiger, along with all other Tiger assets required to hopefully make a smooth migration to Leopard.
    NERD SCENARIO:
    Apple Mail: My friend relied heavily on "Automatically complete addresses" in Apple Mail, otherwise known as Automatic Addressing, aka: auto complete TO: email addresses when typing a name. Unfortunately, when migrating to Leopard, he has now lost auto addressing after I migrated his old email (Inbox, Sent, Deleted, etc.) He's savvy, but not savvy enough to know to add his recipients to his Apple Address Book -- therefore Leopard Mail is only auto completing recent mail within this past week. I'm now trying to inform him to begin adding people to his Address Book so this doesn't happen again -- but it might be too late? He used to rely heavily on Auto Addressing to remember email addresses prior.
    TRANSLATION:
    1. How can I pull date or history from my backed up Mail folder from Tiger to import back into Leopard so "Auto Addressing" will remember email addresses prior?
    2. Did I not backup his mail correctly? I burned an almost exact mirror of his hard drive to a DVD.
    3. Has he lost his ability to auto address old email addresses? Since he didn't add them to his Address Book?
    Thanks for any help!
    Message was edited by: sem101

    I just did the same thing, transferring all my data from Tiger to a new Leopard MacBook Pro, and now I can't access ANY of my addresses from my old address book, even tho I can see all the data sitting in Library... How the heck do I get the hundreds of addresses into my new address book? And, why won't my new Mail pick up all the Auto-Complete addresses from the old program if I transferred everything over?

  • How to auto populate numerous pdf files with same name and address?

    I have numerous pdf files where a company's name and address will need to be entered onto each file.  Would there be a way to enter this information once, say on an excel file or something, and then have this information auto populate all the correct fields in each and every pdf file I have to fill out.  I am a complete rookie with Adobe Acrobat.  At any one's convenience please let me know or point me in a direction where I can possibly learn this for myself.  If Adobe offers this type of service please let me know which department to contact.
    Thanks,
    John

    If you were an InDesign user, you could layout the document there, and use the Data Merge feature to bring in the names and addresses from Excel. Then create a PDF of the resulting file which could be split into individual PDFs.
    There might be a way to do it similarly with Microsoft Word and Mail Merge.
