Check box to copy text from 1 field to another

I am trying to use a check box to copy the tech from a billing address text box to a shipping address text box only if the check box is checked.
I am new to using java and building forms in acrobat so please understand.
I have googled and tried to implement the following script in the shipping address Text field properties under format. but it doesn't work
if (this.getfield('checkbox').value =='Yes'){SHIP_TO.value = Bill_To.value} else {Ship_To.value =""}
thank you for any assistance

Well you cannot use Java within a PDF form. PDF forms use JavaScript which is very different form Java.
Have you opened the JavaScript console for the form and looked to see if there are any errors?
You syntax for the "if' statement is wrong.
The method for obtaining a field object is 'getField" not "getfield".
Field names should be within quotations marks to indicate the item is a text string and not a variable name.
Any time one needs to access a property of a field, like "value", one needs to use the field object for the named field and not the name of the field.
this.getField("Ship_To").value  = ""
if (this.getField('checkbox').value == 'Yes') {
this.getField("SHIP_TO").value =  this.getField("Bill_To").value

  • Copy text from multiple fields to one field

    I would like to copy text from multiple fields into one field. Each of these smaller fields will only be allowed to have one character. The larger field will not be able to be edited.
    So far, I have thought of creating a naming heirarchy for these fields. I was going to then call upon the array of the parent and set the value of the parent to equal this array.
    var parent = this.getField("everything");
    var array = everything.getArray();
    var v;
    for(parent=0; parent<array.length; parent++)
    v = a + " " + v;               //Im guessing this line is incorrect
    parent.value = a;
    Any suggestions? or a better way of doing this.
    Thanks

    The code sample you provided is using AcroForm scripting and will not work in this form. There is another post similar to this one...have a look at this one it might help you out. It is doing the opposite of what you want but the concept of the loop and how each field is addressed inside ofthe loop is what you wil need.

    I am just about giving up!  I have upgraded Pages to 0.9 (4.3).  Now when I copy text from an incoming email and paste it into Pages it pastes in as an Object and I can't work on it.  It has a border round it and corner markers.  I have never had this problem before.  I have looked at every conceivable thing but cannot find how to get rid of this Object and just paste in the wanted text.  If I fiddle and fiddle within this text I can eventually get a cursor and work on the text - but how on earth can I get rid of the surrounding box?  
    I don't know if this is at all clear but I can't think of any other way to describe this - but it looks like this in Pages with corner and top, bottom and side markers.

    Peter hello - I have been copying and pasting for as long as I can remember and it has NEVER done this before - so why now!? Anyway, Jerry has told me about Paste and Match Style --- yet another new thing! 
    I have also discovered that I don''t need to hold down Option when I go to Save to get Save As -  I can hold down 4 keys (shift, option, command and S) and it will bring up Save As!! 
    Thanks for your response.

  • Copy text from table to table issue

    Using CS6 on PC Win 7 64bit
    not noticed this before probably becasue I usually copy in from Excel or Word docs, but when I copy text from one table to another in a document  its copying it as a nested table,
    if I just copy a single  cell then thats ok but anything else its placed as a table within the target table.
    Probably something really obvious I've overlooked, but its driving me nuts
    Have looked in  prefs and Clipboard  is set for just text, apart from that I cant see anything
    thanks for any help you can give

    Hi Bob
    thanks for that speedy reply.
    I've just been doing some testing and I'm not sure if the results I'm getting are how things should be.
    I just called up one of my recent excel tables and did what I usually do, highlight from the top left cell to the bottom right hand corner cell, Ctrl-C
    Excel table is always 11 column but  the number of rows varies from week to week, from 50 or so to 250.
    Opened an ID table  template I use which width wise is  the same amount of columns as my source excel file 11 columns, but only a few rows.
    Place the cursor and highlight the first row in ID  Ctrl-V,  table is filled and it auto inserts more rows to the limit of the object box  and then I just drag the table down to fill the page and then just click and drag the loaded cursor to create more table space on the next page if needed, nice and simple.
    Just opened a new  table with 6 rows and 4 columns
    and tried to paste into a table with 2 rows and 4 columns expecting it to automatically fill and give me the overfill red icon on the frame but it doesnt
    but it does with text from outside of ID, I just tested it, it automatically fills all the table and adds rows until the object fram is ful and then I can just use the overfill facility to increase the table size
    Seems odd that this only works with externally copied material

  • Copying text from CMIR (KNMT) to the Sales Order Line Item

    We need to copy text from the CMIR (KNMT) to the Sales Order Line Item with two steps in the access sequence. First to look up by the Ship to Partner Function.  If doesn't exist, then look up by Sold to Partner Function.  Have setup a new text id (ZPRN), a new access seq (9011).  The access seq has one seq =5 for KNMT, ZPRN, all languages and that saves fine.  When I set the Partner Function to be SH.  I get the following error msg:
    "The Language does not come from the partner function AG for MVKE".
    Any ideas?  This access seq does not reference MVKE. It only references KNMT.
    Thanks!

    Hi Lisa,
    Just stumbled on this post, as I am searching for something similar.
    What you are attempting to do isn't possible in config.
    This is because as standard Customer Material Info Records are not even considered for ship-to party in the sales order.
    They work for sold-to only.
    Therefore, this funny error message is SAP's way of saying, "Why are you trying to enter a partner here, because the data is determined for sold to only?"
    You can change this with development for other fields (ie, to determine delivery plant, tolerances etc at ship-to) by using
    the exit MV45AFZB with the USEREXIT_CUST_MATERIAL_READ form.
    However, even if you do this, Text Determination is still sold-to only and still doesn't behave.
    I am currently looking myself for a solution for this problem and I will let you know what I find.
    Cheers
    Chris

  • Can Pages copy text from one page to another automatically?

    Can Pages automatically copy text from one page to another?
    For example recurring text in a document e.g. addressee details or a date (not today's date).
    I want to type the topic title of one letter and have it automatically filled into the correct field in the next page which will be a letter to a different recipient.
    The letter text will be different for each recipient so mail merge probably won't work.
    Thanks

    Thanks that worked great!!!(for the first line)
    Now why wont it populate more than the one other text field?

  • Can't copy text from InDesign to other applications

    Hi there,
    Whenever I try to copy text from InDesign to any other applications, it simply fails. When I get to my text editor, email program, Illustrator or Photoshop, it's like the clipboard is empty.
    I'm able to copy shapes and other objects, though. I can also copy entire text boxes, but if I'm copying to Illustrator, for instance, all the lines of text are separated. It's treated as an object and is pretty useless for typical formatting needs.
    I'm on Mac OS X Mountain Lion, using InDesign CS5.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks!

    Hi all,
    Thanks for replying!
    I tried unchecking "copy PDF", and also quit the only slightly-clipboard related app I use, Quicksilver, but it didn't fix the problem.
    Does anyone have any other ideas?

  • Copy text from PO to SO

    Hi All,
    Is it possible to copy text from the Purchase Order to Sales Order? I checked the Tcode VOTXN i do not see any text definitions in there for PO. Also I realized the text objects are not the same for PO and SO. Can any one confirm if the text copy is possible from PO to SO please?
    I looked in SDN posts but did not find any helpful ones. Any suggestions are much appreciated.

    Hi
    Yes u can do it.
    I don't believe it's possible to link PO texts to SO texts, but perhaps it can create a routine in order to get the text from PO and copy to SO.

    Hi
    I've a big problem with adobe acrobat reader XI pro and I hope you can help me.
    The problem is; when I past copied text from some pdf books (not all of them) it past symbols only! wherever I past it! and even if I coped that text from another pdf reader (adobe pdf reader, internet browsers, ...etc.).
    This problem started to happen since yesterday when I installed adobe acrobat reader XI pro to try it before I buy it, and before that when I was using the free adobe pdf reader I was totally able to copy any text from any pdf and past it anywhere with nothing wrong.
    What can I do?
    thank you a lot.

    There is no product called Adobe Acrobat Reader Pro. There is
    - Adobe Acrobat Pro ($$)
    - Adobe Reader (free)
    Which do you have? And are you a programmer?

  • How do I copy text from one layer to  another?

    I have Googled this but not a single answer seems to work.
    I am using Photoshop CS4 on OS X 10.6.7.
    OK, so  I  have a layer that  has some text in it.  I would like to  be able to  simply copy that  text  from one layer  to  another, but this seems to  be impossible as the Edit Paste menu item is grayed out after I have copied it in to the clipboard.  I can paste it into  the SAME layer, but not into another layer.
    This is how I am trying to  do  this.
    In the layer  with the text, click on the "T" icon to  the left.
    Click on the text, in the layer that I  want to  copy. 
    I select the text (either  by  clicking and dragging or pressing Command-A).
    Next I press Command-C.
    Then I  click on the layer In the Layer Panel) where I want to  paste the text.
    Pressing Command-V is impossible because the Edit-Paste menu option is grayed out!!!!
    WHY??????
    Perhaps more importantly, HOW do I copy text  from one layer to  another?

    First thing you can simply right click on the Text Layer and choose Duplicate Layer.  But that will create a new Text Lay
    er identical to the one you have.
    To answer your question in your case....  Create the Text Layer.   Make a New Layer.  Or have the layer you want to paste into visible.
    Highlight the text layer in the Layer Palette and Ctrl+Click (Win) Cmd+Click(Mac) so that you see marching ants walking around your text.
    Edit>Copy.
    Then highlight your Layer you want to paste into and hit Edit>Paste or Cmd+V / Ctrl+V.
