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.
