Hi,

Suppose I have only two fields in an acrobat form, one is name A and aonther is B. I want A and B has the same value.

If I input a date value into field A like November 20, 2010, is that possible the field B can be auto filled with the same value as that in the A field?

How about other type of data such as number?

What should I write in validation or calculation area in the field properties of B?

Thanks and looking forward to getting help from the PDF expert.

The file Population-and-binding.xml used in the preview to demonstrate global data binding looks like this.
