I'm currently using Powerbuilder Version 2022 Build 1878 64-bit and the AcroExchApp/AcroExchPDDOC.

I can open the XFA pdf files and *read* the values, but I can not change the value in the JS Object. I'd like to figure out how or find another way to change the fillable field.

Current code looks like

AcroExchApp = create OLEObject
li_rtn=AcroExchApp.ConnectToNewObject("AcroExch.App")

AcroExchPDDoc = create OLEObject
li_rtn=AcroExchPDDoc.ConnectToNewObject("AcroExch.PDDoc")

lb_rtn=AcroExchPDDoc.Open('c:\temp\FILE1.pdf')

PDDocGetJSObject = AcroExchPDDoc.GetJSObject();

ls_field_name = 'form1[0].#subform[0].TextField1[0]'
PDDocField = PDDocGetJSObject.getField(ls_field_name)

lb_readonly = PDDocField.readonly;
ls_current_value=PDDocField.value;

PDDocField.value = "FUZZY"

ls_new_value = PDDocField.value;

In that ls_current_value receives the value that is currently in the fillable field (James), and  PDDocField.readonly is false. But ls_new_value still has the value currently in the fillable field (so James, *not* FUZZY). I have full Adobe Acrobat PRO on my machine (as will the people using the software).

If I can't use this software inside Powerbuilder, I'll happily change to some other suggested method.  Note, these are XFA files, I don't have a copy of the template in a more modern setup.
