Hi all,
I'm a Livecycle/adobe newbie who is completely script illiterate. I have created a form in Livecycle which has two sections. Section 1 is completed by person 1 and then emailed to person 2. Person 2 assigns the case to person 3 and forwards the emailed form to them. Person 3 completes section 2 of the form and then emails back to person 2. This is probably as clear as mud but that's the way it's meant to run.
Before person 1 emails the form I want to check that they have completed certain fields (not what they have entered, just that the field has been filled). If I use the object palette to set the value of fields in the form to "required" the validation that runs on clicking the email submit button in section 1 looks at all the fields in the form (section1 and section2) rather than just the fields the user needs to complete. Am I able to tailor this so that the validation only looks at a particular sub-form?
Apologies for the garbled question and thanks for your help.

Ok so here's an update and another question:
I have created a basic form to work on and try and resolve this issue. It has one field in one subform and two buttons. The script I am using on the click event of button 1 is as follows:
if (form1.textField1.rawvalue==null) then
xfa.host.messageBox("you must fill this field")
else
form1.access = "readOnly";
endif
Button2.execEvent("click")Button 2 is an email submit button.
This seems to do what I want but my actual form has lots of fields in multiple subforms. Is there a way to amend the above - or write something totally new - so that I don't have to go through and write up all the fields I want checked into the script?
