How comes you have 465 posts and 2 points? That probably means you don´t care about the others and you don´t help people, right? These 2 points look like more like an accident... Maybe you can fix the "balance" before asking? Thank you, Otto

hi,

when you run the application...

below the adobe toolbar...

it shows another message bar....

which shows one option... "Highlight Required fields"

just check it....

all you mandatory fields will turn red.

Hi Shobhit,

you can write something like xfa.host.setFocus(<text field name>). to set the focus or

<text field name>.fillColor = "120,120,123";

<text field name>.resolveNode"ui.#textEdit").border.edge.fill.color.value="120,150.200";

to fill the color.

Refer to adobe dev centger scripting samples to learn more on these.

Hope these helps.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi

You can do this in XML source. For example:

<field id=".........

.............

............

<validate nullTest="error"/>

</field>
