Filling other fields automatically based on an answer selected from a drop down menu?
I am creating a PDF document with teacher's names and I have created a drop down menu of the names. I would like another field to populate with the teacher's full address is their name is selected. This is my first attempt at using JavaScript and I have no idea where to put what and how. Thanks for your help!

Here is the funny thing--I too "have no idea where to put what and how". You would need to give us a little more information, please.
:-) right. One field would be a drop down menu of names and I would also like to have another field labeled address that is automatically populated with the address that corresponds to the name picked from the drop down menu. I don't have any more information than that.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I would like to use plain JavaScript.
I would like to know what the syntax is for creating the script and where do I add it into the document or what are the steps to adding it i.e., create custom action, etc.?
Thanks.

What I guess I am trying to find out, is how much do you already know?
1) Have you started looking at any tutorials?

2) What are you using for a development environment (Visual Studio, Eclipse, ...)?

I know very little. I found this post here:
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Web_Development/Document_Imaging/Adobe_Acrobat/Q_23879710.html
...and think this is what I need to do but I was confused as to where this string would go in the PDF.

I don't know that much about Acrobat Pro. It looks like you need to find out how to work with Javascript for Adobe.
