Hi Margaret,
I didn't realise the yes/no questions were in a radio button group.
In this case I would put the script in the click event and instead of using xfa.event.newText (which relates to the change event), you would use the 'this.rawValue' to test against the users response.
So the click event would look like this:
switch (this.rawValue)
     case "Yes": // or whatever you have bound a yes answer to
     textfield1.rawValue = "";
     textfield2.rawValue = "";
     case "No":
     textfield1.rawValue = "N/A";
     textfield2.rawValue = "N/A";
You can place this script in the click event of the radio button group, which will cover both radio buttons in the group. Remember to have the form set to automatically save script changes (File > Form Properties > Defaults).
Yes, 'textfield1' is an example of an object in the subform that you want to assign as N/A. If the user answers No, then N/A will appear in the value portion of the object.
Hope that helps,
Niall
