    Frustration Supreme!

    Compared to the other posts here, this ought to be a cakewalk for you guys;)

    I'm trying to make a form in a pdf doc that will mail to me. I'm trying to
    use the following script:

    this.mailForm
    (true, "[email protected] om", "", "", "Message Subject
    Description")

    And keep getting a syntax error saying 'illegal character, line 2'. Of
    course, it doesn't tell me what it is, not to mention the fact that I got
    this script from Acrobat's help file!

    Ugh. Can anyone help me?

    Thanks,
    Mary

    Re: trial and error :)

    Hi!

    I really don't know but I will make an attempt at suggesting a few things
    that you could try. I may be wrong though .
    I assume you haven't forgotten the ";" at the end of the line it is just
    that you haven't included it in this post right ?
    Although I seriously doubt that this is the problem, try instead of passing
    the empty string like "" , give the reserved word null.
    Now also try to go back and see that you have properly declared the mailForm
    method (if its yours and not a library) and the object which it belongs to.
    And also see if you are passing the appropriate number of parameters...
    Also make sure that you haven't forgottern any parentheses or ";"s in
    commands above this one.

    That's all I can suggest... :)
    Good luck !
    Maria
