Read Pdf fields

[TesZero]

Hello again.


I came back with another Headache


So... i am developing another application.


This application is about Service Quality and it stores the Non-Conformities in the institution.


If there is a Non-Conformities registry we need to contact our sub contracted company and ask them the Corrective Action (how to solve the problem) about that non-conformity registry.


So... all i need is to have a easy way to send a "form" to the other company, receive the data form filled and store it on my database...


I dont want to send a excel file, so i was thinking about a fillable pdf form.


The problem is that i googled a lot and i cant find how to read pdf fields to my access form/table ...


Can someone help me? :|

Maybe Collect Data would serve your needs.

Otherwise, maybe this will help http://khkonsulting.com/2010/09/read...elds-with-vba/
Need to know the names of the form fields on the PDF.

Hello, many thanks for your help.

i know that example, and it would be great if it works :P
or... if i could make it work

I googled a lot about this before i post the question, when i found it i was very happy, but i can't make it work...

i had created a form and a button, i post the code in the button, but it gave me a reference error.
"Compile Error: User-Difined type not defined" here -> " Dim AcroApp As Acrobat.CAcroApp"

I try to look up for the reference and i saw this, at here: http://www.khk.net/wordpress/2009/03...-introduction/ :



but i dont have any "acrobat" reference in my access 2007 vba, i look for acrobat.tld in the internet but when i bowse for the reference it disapear for the list.
At my reference list i have:
- Acrobat Access 3.0 Type Library
- AcroBrokerLib
- AcroIEHelper 1.0 Tyope library
- AcroIEHelperShim 1.0 Type Library
- Adobe 3D utility 1.0 Type Library
- Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Browser Control Type Library 1.0
- Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Type Library

I tryed to use the Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Type Library and it still dosent working..
i got this error:
"run-time error '429': ActiveX component can't creat object. here -> "Set AcroApp = CreateObject("AcroExch.App")"



Again, Thank you for your help.

I have code that manipulates PDF files. Review https://www.accessforums.net/access/...pdf-25574.html

It does not require an App object.

If you want to provide an Acrobat form fill document for testing, I will try.

However, if you have a solution from another thread, would be considerate to provide here or link.
