Dynamically change the type of a field

Question

Hello,
After finishing reading the adobe documentation and looking at almost all the samples in the Adobe website, i still have no clues how to do the dynamic type changing in the E-Forms.
Do you think it's possible to change dynamically the type of a field at runtime or during the generation of the pdf?
Example:
i send a table to the PDF with the following information:
Table X line 1 column1 --> textfield type
Table X line 2 column1 --> Numeric field type
The result must be the generation of the table X with at the first line a text field and at the second line a Numeric. Of course those field will be editable.
Possible ?? or not?
Thx for your help,

Let me guess, you would like to work with Adobe as you would work with WD. You cannot generate forms from scratch. And that is equal to create a single field, than dynamically duplicate it, distribute it all around the paper and change the types to the right ones. This is not possible. You can only create a superbig form and use hiding.
If you would like to see a super-big-crazy example, check form MEDRUCK delivered by SAP. This form is superbig, but your output can contain only few fields according to the print type you need.
If you form is that complicated you cannot build it this way, then the requirement is probably not structured and goes against the meain stream (which needs the structure:))
