Issues With PDF Template Mapping

Question

Hi all,
Oracle BI Publisher for Windows 10.1.3.2.1
Oracle Publisher Desktop 10.1.3.2.1
Adobe Acrobat 5.0.5
Broswer IE 6.0.29
I have created a report based on a single database table (DEMO.PRODUCTS) but am experiencing problems when I try and map the form fields in PDF Template to my sample XML file.
I created a PDF Template and uploaded this template to my Layout. This PDF Template has two form fields on it (PRODUCTNAME and UNITPRICE, which incidentally are the names of the database columns I want them to map to).
I have also uploaded my sample XML data file and therefore have access to the Map Form Fields button on my report definition. However, when I click on the button a new window opens with the Map PDF Form Fields and a dialog to "Click on each highlighted...." and then hangs. When I close the window I receive a message about an Adobe Acrobat error.
If I try and do the same thing in Firefox then I receive a message in the JavaScript Console:
Acrobat Database Connectivity Built-in Functions Version 5.0
Acrobat EScript Built-in Functions Version 5.0
Acrobat Annotations / Collaboration Built-in Functions Version 5.0
TypeError: app.execDialog is not a function opened this in Adobe Acrobat
Any suggestions or comments appreciated.
Many thanks,
Gary.

Hi Aashish,
I suggest you to check the RTF Template of your report ....as if your xml output file on submit request form--->diagnostic --->view xml ...is generated ... it means that your data defination file is perfectly fine but there is issue with your rtf template....may be some of grouping or tag is not put properly...
one thing i want to suggest you to pls save that data file as .xml extension and upload in rtf u designed on youe desktop.... check theprview if its coming fine or not.
let me know if u still facing the same problem.
