The code expects an existing Excel file with one row of headers (which are used as column names when mapping between the XFDF field names and Excel) and inserts data into the second row of the first sheet, shifting the existing data down - so: Yes, it does append data to an existing file that can have as much pre-existing data in it as you like.
but also more if you need to load several at once. Yes, the file open dialogue for the XFDF files will allow you to select only one file. So if the Livecycle data file's XML looks like that then it should work but my quick trawl through the Livecycle documentation this morning indicates that it may not work as it stands.
The code expects the fields and values in the XFDF file(s) to be in the format: I haven't looked at the spec for the data files out of Livecycle XFA so I don't know how similar they are.
You do this for every record you have in your Excel file and save the PDF file to a new name.The import uses the data file portion in XFDF format. This will fill the PDF form with the selected values: On the next screen you can then pick which record to import, you can only import one record at a time: On the file dialog, select to import a text file, browse to your exported text file and select it. Once you have your Tab Delimited Text file, open your PDF form, and select Tools>Forms>More Form Options and click on Import: This is one of the export options in Excel (and other spread sheet applications) that is available after you select File>Save As:
When you export your data file from Excel, you need to select the "Tab Delimited Text" format. In this sample, I took the first approach and used the field names as my column headers: You can either match the names that you are using in your PDF form, or you need to modify the field names in the PDF form so that they match the column names in Excel. The columns need to be named the same way as the field names in the PDF form. Yes, but you there are two things you need to do in Excel for this to work:
