We downloaded a fillable PDF from a US government website.
The form includes some logic such that, for example, when a user clicks a checkbox, 4 other check boxes automatically get populated.
When I open the PDF in PDF-XChange and go into Form Edit mode, I can't find where that auto-fill logic is so that I can delete it.
I've selected the checkbox and viewed properties and the ACTIONS are all <Empty>
I've looked in the JaveScript Console and it is blank.
Where else should I be looking?

Re: Remove logic from fillable form
Hi, rob@wilqo.com
thanks for the detailed post. JavaScript can also be document level, access them from the document Properties (ctrl+d):
If there is nothing there maybe send us the file to look into?
Kind regards,

Thanks!
Nothing in the doc level either.
I did solve the problem!
They have multiple elements with the same field names.
If I give each a unique name, they no longer "auto fill".
SOLVED!
