title: Getting checkbox data form user and checking dynamic stamp in Adobe Acrobat
body: <p>I am building a dynamic stamp in Acrobat. It has 5 check boxes, and three text fields. I have the text fields fine, a dialog box pops up, ask Name, Project, they fill it in and it fills in the fields. The other text box is the date which I pull dynamically. The check boxes are the trouble. I know to check them with :</p>
  
  <pre><code>var f = this.getField("cb10");
  f.checkThisBox(0,true);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Put I don't know how to include the choices in the dialog box and link them to the stamp box.
  Any help greatly appreciated. </p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT</strong></p>
  
  <p>I have come up with this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    var DiaBox =
  {
  
  result:"cancel",
  DoDialog: function(){return app.execDialog(this);},
  bChk1:false,
  bChk2:false,
  bChk3:false,
  bChk4:false,
  bChk5:false,
  stredt1:"",
  stredt2:"",
  initialize: function(dialog)
  {
  var dlgInit = 
  {
  "Chk1": this.bChk1,
  "Chk2": this.bChk2,
  "Chk3": this.bChk3,
  "Chk4": this.bChk4,
  "Chk5": this.bChk5,
  "edt1": this.stredt1,
  "edt2": this.stredt2,
  };
  dialog.load(dlgInit);
  },
  commit: function(dialog)
  {
  var oRslt = dialog.store();
  this.bChk1 = oRslt["Chk1"];
  this.bChk2 = oRslt["Chk2"];
  this.bChk3 = oRslt["Chk3"];
  this.bChk4 = oRslt["Chk4"];
  this.bChk5 = oRslt["Chk5"];
  this.byName = oRslt["edt1"];
  this.projNum = oRslt["edt2"];
  },

  <p>It works great in Acrobat, but in reader, the By Name field and check boxes don't get populated. I can't get a debugger in reader, so I have an issue tracking the problem. Can anyone see what it might be?</p>
