Hello,

I was wondering if it’s possible to duplicate a dynamic text field and its variable and increment its variable?

For instance i’d have a mc containing a text field “txt1” and its variable “txtvar1”. Now i’m going to load from a ASP page a number, let’s say Nb=4. Is it possible to duplicate the text field “txt1” Nb times tohave:

txt1 + txtvar1  
txt2 + txtvar2  
txt3 + txtvar3 …

?

TiA

you can’t duplicate, but you can use the createTextField() method 🙂
