Thanks for the reply. I didn't realize this wasn't the official support pages or I would have posted to them instead.
You are correct. In real life our code would check if there were form fields first before attempting to access them. Nevertheless I will contact support about a better way to initialize fields.

Hi Rich!

This here is a user-user-forum.
If you miss functionalities you should post it on the official support pages.
My opinion:
Yes you're right but in real life this doesn't matter 'cause you're using FormFieldCount first to check if there are formfields?

Cheers, Ingo

I just received this report from one of my developers using QuickPDF Library 8 in our Delphi 7 project:
 
"As I mentioned on the phone, QuickPDF (QPDF) identifies form fields as annotations, specifically as Widgets. There is a function called IsAnnotFormField which tells us if the "annotation" is actually a form field. When I first tried IsAnnotFormField, I got an Access Violation whenever I checked a form field. Turns out the access violation appeared because QPDF's internal field list had not been initialized."
 
My guy was trying to directly access a field that was known to exist on the form. The only way he saw to get around the error was to first call FormFieldCount which seems to initialize the internal data structure representing form fields; without this call, the list that references the form fields doesn't appear to get initialized. Shouldn't QuickPDF initialize its internal lists without the need for us to call this method? Or is there something we missed?
 
Thank you.
Rich
