Hi, Mark

I think I found it; to refer to the individual "buttons", you need a dot
reference; field.1, field.2, etc. We are using an automated application to
generate PDF forms from an OCR package. It automatically converts choice
fields to radio button fields in the PDF. We have a major usability issue in
the inability to "uncheck" a radio button. Our forms group will have to
convert 2500 forms a year, so manually fixing them would not be viable. My
thought was to run a batch JavaScript to find all the radio buttons, get
their data, delete them, and then create checkboxes in the same locations,
with the same values, etc. I think this will work now...

Hi, Mark

Can you be a little more specific as to what you are trying to do?  What
information are you trying to get?  As far as I can tell, it's only
appearance values that can differ inside a set of radio buttons.

Greetings all, I have a JavaScript issue that I just can't seem to
resolve. I have forms with radio buttons with the same name. I am trying
to get to the properties (rect) of all of the buttons, but when I use
getField, I only get the information about the first field with the
name. I'm pretty sure that the field(s) are stored as a collection, but
I'm apparently having a brain cloud, because I can't access them. Anyone
have any ideas?
