Is there a dll or activex ?
Thanks for your help.

Adobe Acrobat Pro version is require to use the sample.

Code: Select all

function main()
    AcroApp:= CreateObject("AcroExch.App")
    theForm:= CreateObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")
    theForm:Open("c:\reports\test.pdf")
    jso:= theForm:GetJSObject
    text1 = jso:getField("fld1"):Value
    text2 = jso:getField("fld2"):Value
    ?text1
    ?text2
return nil
