Adobe offline form - drop down

Hi,

I created an offline form of type standard layout. and attached a interface of ABAP dictionary based.

Is it possible to populate the drop down values dynamically using the initialization option in the interface. If yes please give me some idea how to define the field and the mapping in the form.

For e.g. i want personnel no field as a drop down. we will create a form and send it via mail to the users.One option is to enter values manually in the form but if some new personnels have to be added then everytime the form needs to be updated too. so is it possible that we can populate the drop down values in the initialization of the interface. so that whenever the form is sent via mail through a program it will have the updated values.

Thanks,

Nikhil

You can create a table of persnos in the backend and use dynamic binding in the form (no coding needed) to fill these values into a drop down. Dynamic binding has been described many times here, so do a little search. Otto

I wrote a code in the initialisation tab of the form interface. and its working now. We need to select pass by value check box for the field which we want to pass the value.
