Database connection not working across all Adobe programs

Question

I have a PDF form connected to an Access database via ODBC. On the form, I created a button that, when clicked, takes the data in the PDF and adds it to the database. The scripts for that action and the connection was established in LiveCycle Designer. I opened the PDF in Acrobat Pro and enabled Usage Rights for Reader (overwriting the file in the process). Here's what I find odd. The button works fine in Acrobat Pro, but when I open the PDF in Reader and try the button, it gives me an error saying that the accessor 'xfa.sourceSet.DataConnection.open();' is unknown. Why on earth would Adobe recognize the connection in Acrobat but not in Reader? That doesn't make sense to me, especially since I did enable the usage rights.

Answer 1

I do not see where this permission is given in the enablement of Acrobat Professional Forms. What I see is the following:
- Save form data
- Commenting and drawing mark-up tools
- Sign an existing signature field
- Digitally sign the documen anywher on the page (only supported in Adobe Reader 8.0)
I do not see connect to a database anywhere.
