The direct answer to your question is "no".

However, there are alternatives.

* Again, if you are not in real need of Acrobat 6 features, consider Approval, which would give you this functionality, albeit at Acrobat 5.05 level. Approval is still available; contact your Adobe representative.

* Access the database not directly via ODBC, but indirectly via a completely reduced to the bare minimum webserver running locally. You then submit the requests to that server, which then handles the rest.

Hope, this can help.

From reading all of the e-mails, you are correct that Document Server is out of
the question due to the cost!! Secondly it seems as though FDF might have been
an alternative. However, I am NOT using a SERVER application. All of my users
have a local workstation with an Access Database that stores their data and pdf
files resident on their local drives. I need to get the data from the local
workstation (or LAN drive) into the form fields in the local PDFs.


Is there any way to get the variable information from the SQL statement from the
LOCAL MS Access into the LOCAL PDF? Keep in mind that the only Adobe product that
the users have on their workstations is �READER�.
