   Hi, 

i need some help. 

I have a PDF file with Formfields as checkbox / mutli. 

I do the following:

  i := pdfl.FindFormFieldByTitle('1005');
  y := pdfl.GetFormFieldSubCount(i);

For y - i get 25 subfieldcount. How can i access this subfields?
The FormFieldType is 3. There also 25 subfields of type checkbox. I want to check one box of them.

With a other application i see that there one checkbox with name(1005) and a level below 25 others with name 1005#0, 1005#1, 1005#2 .... 1005#25. 

i appreciate your help :-)

	Oleri, Here is some sample code that may help also. QP.LoadFromFile("formfields.pdf", ""); QP.RemoveXFAEntries(1); QP.RemoveUsageRights(); QP.SetNeedAppearances(0); for (int i = 1; i <= QP.FormFieldCount(); i++) { string title = QP.GetFormFieldTitle(i); string s = QP.GetFormFieldValue(i); int type = QP.GetFormFieldType(i); if (type == 3 \|\| type == 4 \|\| type == 5) // checkbox, radio, choicebox { int sc = QP.GetFormFieldSubCount(i); for (int j = 1; j <= sc; j++) { string sfn = QP.GetFormFieldSubName(i, j); if (type == 3) { if (sfn != "Off") QP.SetFormFieldValueByTitle(title, sfn); } else QP.SetFormFieldValueByTitle(title, sfn); } } else if (type != 7) // Parent QP.SetFormFieldValue(i, "AA BB"); QP.UpdateAppearanceStream(i); } Andrew.
