Highlight required fields/Clear fillColor upon data entry

So here's what I'm trying to do in LifeCycle Designer 7. I have a dynamic form that I highlight the required fields by setting their fillColor to a blue upon form initialization. I then want the fields to go to transparent after data has been entered into them. But then if they delete that data, I want the color to return so they know they still need to put data in that field.
I've gotten some help from these forums, but I just can't seem to get it to where it needs to be. I can go between blue and white (w/ a visible border that I don't want), but I cannot get the fields to go completely transparent. If there was a way to automatically check the "Highlight Fields" and/or "Highlight Required Fields" boxes upon opening the pdf, I wouldn't have to do this at all.
So here is my code for the exit event of the fields:
if (this.rawValue == null || this.rawValue == "")
this.ui.oneOfChild.border.presence = "hidden";
this.fillColor = "153,255,255";
else
this.ui.oneOfChild.border.presence = "visible";
this.fillColor = "255,255,255";
If I take out the fill in the else statement, it always stays blue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have the same problem, cannot get the fill color back to transparent.
Could you find a solution?
Regards,
Chris

Required field postal coded has no entry

While updating the BP master through TCode UDM_BP, we are getting the following error - Required field postal coded has no entry. Message No.R1304
We have checked the field status for that country in the following path. General settings >Set Countries > Set country specific checks. Postal code requried entry is unchecked for that particular country.
Is there any other configuration to be checked.
Timely help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Please check field status for Account Group in transaction OMSG.

Highlight required fields via script...

Does anyone know how to highlight all of the required fields via script?
Acrobat displays a checkbox for highlighting required fields, but it
is unchecked by default and the user has to click it each time they open
the document. I have yet to see a way to set it as a preference in
Acrobat or Reader and I don't see any way to enable this via an
initialize script either.
Any ideas?

Need help in LiveCycle Forms - Highlighting required fields when the check box is checked / Un-highlighting the fields if I un-check the check box...

Hello All!
I am relatively new to creating forms within LiveCycle but I have learned quickly so bare with me on my question.
I have figured out how to highlight a field when a check box is clicked on, however, I cannot get it to remove the highlight when the check box is unchecked?
This is what I used for the highlight:
Subform1.fieldname.fillColor="255,255,0"
Can anyone provide any insight or suggestions on how I might fix this script issue?
Thanks in advance!

Adobe Acrobat Required Field

Thanks in advance for your input.
I have created a form for our users fill out electronically, but print out to sign and return to us. I would like to make certain fields required; however, checking required fields on happens upon submitting the form electronically. Any suggestions? Thanks, again.

The "Required" property is intended for when PDF forms are submitted to a scripted web page for additional processing and it is the web page processing that throws the error, so many of the users that used this even with web submissions wrote scripts within the PDF to provide a better error message prompt.
You will have to create a special script to do this check.

What else must I do to force data entry other than making the field required in LC 9 Forms Designer?

I am trying to make sure that fields are populated with data prior to moving to the next field, but it seems that simply making the field required is not sufficient. What else must I do to enforce data entry within required fileds?
Thank you,

There are a variety of scripting techniques that can be used based upon the form requirements, UI aesthetics, designer preference,... The script below forces data entry into a text field object called 'tf1' but it is a dangerous practice and should be used carefully. You may find yourself in a infinite loop based upon the tab order. A safer pattern includes global field validation upon submit.
// form1.page1.subform1.tf1::exit - (JavaScript, client)
if (this.isNull) {
xfa.host.messageBox("tf1 is a mandatory field.","Text Field 1 Error",0);
xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page1.subform1.tf1");

Field Bline date is a required field for G/L account 1200 122400

While posting a Good receipt document using MIGO for a PO I am recieving the following error
Field Bline date is a required field for G/L account 1200 122400
Though both the document date and Posting date fields are filled with appropriate date.
The detailed message reads as follows, now my question is how to change the baseline date for the Cocd 1200 for GL account 122400
Field Bline date is a required field for G/L account 1200 122400
Message no. F5 808
Diagnosis
The value for field "Bline date" in the interface to Financial Accounting is an initial value but you are required to make an entry in the field selection for G/L account "122400" in company code "1200" linked to the field selection for posting key "81".
System Response
Error
Procedure
It might be an error in the configuration of the G/L account field selection. The initial application, used to call up the interface must otherwise define a value for field "Bline date". If this is the case, contact the consultant responsible for the application used to call up the interface or get in contact with SAP directly.

Hello Ravinagh,
Heres what I did:
OB41> Double clicked on posting key 81> clicked on field status> Payment transactions> Both Due date and Value date have already been set to optional.
For OB14 it asks me to input a field status variant.
There are three of them. Now here is the tricky part, how do I find out which field variant has been assigned
0001     Field status for 0001
1000     Field status for CoA 1000
3000     Field status for CoC 3000
I went further and check for all the three variants one by one
and found out that in the field status> Payment transactions for the following entry in the field status group
G045     Goods/invoice received clearing accounts
The DUE DATE and VALUE DATE are suppressed. What do I need to do here?
Next I checked OBB8 to find the following three Options I dunno which one of them is applicable to the GL account 122400 for Cocd 1200. Where can I find the assignment? How can I find which payment term is being used.
   PayT        Sales text
Day limit   Explanations
0001
0           Payable immediately Due net
0002
0           Within 14 days 3 % cash discount
              Within 30 days 2 % cash discount
              Within 45 days Due net
0003
15          Within 14 days 2 % cash discount
              Within 30 days 1.5 % cash discount
              Within 45 days Due net
              Baseline date on 30 of the month
Entry 1 of 40
Well I went ahead and clicked on each of them
For 0001 the Default for Baseline date is set to Posting date (Do I need to change anything here?)
For 0002 the Default for Baseline date is set to Document date (Do I need to change anything here?)
For 0003 the Default for Baseline date is set to Posting date (Do I need to change anything here?)
Please guide me here. If you need screenshots I would be glad to mail it to you.
I hope you understood the scenario.
Thanks
Ron

Check duplicate data entry in multi record block,which is a mandatory field

Dear all,
I have a situation where i have to check duplicate data entry(on a particular field,which is a mandatory field,i.e. it cannot be skipped by user without entering value) while data key-in in a Multi Record block.
As for reference I have used a logic,such as
1>In a When-Validate-Record trigger of that block I am assigning the value of that current item in Table type variable(collection type)
as this trigger fire every time as soon as i leave that record,so its assigning the value of that current time.And this process continues
then
2>In a When-Validate-Item trigger of that corresponding item(i.e. the trigger is at item level) has been written,where it compares the value of that current item and the value stored in Table type variable(collection type) of When-Validate-Record trigger.If the current item value is matched with any value stored in Table type variable I am showing a message of ('Duplicate Record') following by raise_form_trigger failure
This code is working fine for checking duplicate value of that multi record field
The problem is that,if user enter the value in that field,and then goes to next field,enter value to that field and then press 'Enter Query 'icon,the bolth Validate trigger fires.As result first when-validate record fires,which stores that value,and then when-validate-item fires,as a result it shows duplicate record message
Please give me a meaningful logic or code for solving this problem
Any other logic to solve this problem is also welcome

@Ammad Ahmed
first of all thanks .your logic worked,but still i have some little bit of problem,
now the requirement is a master detail form where both master and detail is multirecord ,where detail cannot have duplicate record,
such as..........
MASTER:--
A code
A1
A2
DETAIL:--
D code
d1
d2 <-valid as for master A1 , detail d1 ,d2 are not duplicate
d2 <--invalid as as for master A1 , detail d2 ,d2 are duplicate
validation rule: A Code –D Code combination is unique. The system will stop users from entering duplicate D Code for a A Code. Appropriate error message will be displayed.*
actually i am facing a typical problem,the same logic i have been applied in detail section ,its working fine when i am inserting new records.problem starts when i query,after query in ' a ' field say 2 records (i.e. which has been earlier saved) has been pasted,now if i insert a new record with the value exactly same with the already present value in the screen(i.e. value populated after query) its not showing duplicate.................could u tell me the reason?and help me out...............its urgent plzzzzzzzzz

When I run this transaction through SAPgui I only have to fill out the field S1_LGNUM, and I have specified this in my code.
Is my code below correct?

    Dim vField As Variant

    BdcTable.Value(j, "FVAL") = "NEXT"            ' Field Value
End Sub
As i have seen this in examples where it looks like below.
Public Sub add_bdcdata(BdcTable As Object, program As String, dynpro As String, dynbegin As String, fnam As String, fval As String)
    Dim vField As Variant
