Insert data from a field into the subject of an email generated form a form

Question

Hi,
Is there a way to have the contents of a field come up in the subject of an email that is made when a submit by email button is clicked.
The data we want is from a date field for a 'week commencing'.
We have a text string that is entered on the button's properties - email subject, but we'd like to add the contents of a field on the form onto this.
any ideas?
thanks,
declan.

Try this code in the click-event of the mail-button (you will have to adjust it of course):
var anrede;
if (xfa.form.Formular.Beratungsprotokoll.Kunde.Anrede.rawValue == "Herr") {
anrede = "Sehr geehrter Herr "; }
else {
anrede = "Sehr geehrter Frau "; }
var mailText = anrede + xfa.form.Formular.Beratungsprotokoll.Kunde.Name.rawValue +
"\nPlease print this form and mail it to me!" +
"\n\nTo speed up processing you can also click on the button 'ok'. " +
"This will generate an e-mail. Please send this e-mail to me." +
"\n\nThank you" +
"\nYour agent";
event.target.submitForm({cURL:"mailto:" +
Formular.Beratungsprotokoll.Kunde.EMail.rawValue +
"?subject=consulting minutes&body=" + mailText,
cSubmitAs:"PDF",cCharset:"utf-8"});
