Deleted text reappears after saving!

Hi there,

I have made several forms in livecycle designer and extended them in acrobat for use with adobe reader. When users save data in the forms and reopen them it is still there as before. Also if they update the data and save and reopen it is still updated. All good so far. However if they delete data (and leave a field blank) and save and reopen they find that the original (deleted) data is still there. This only seems to happen in text fields inside flowed subforms (Which is most of my fields in most of my forms...). Does anyone have a solution for this?

Thanks in advance,

Richard

Works fine for me .....Unless I am not duplicating correctly. Can you outline the steps you took to duplicate the issue?

Hi Paul,

I'm using reader 9. I tried to create a demo form completely from scratch and it worked fine, which leads me to believe it's nothing arising from an old software version. So I made this demo one from (a completely stripped down version of) the template I've been using to make most of my forms and it still has the same problem. Hopefully this just means it's a setting wrong somewhere. I hope you can find something! :-)

Thanks,

Richard

Just tried it and I cannot duplicate ...can you past a sample? What version of Reader are you suing?
