Body row properties in the Binding tab

When you select a body row, the Binding tab in the Object palette displays several data binding options. Options that are not specifically related to creating a data connection apply both to data bound to a data source and data saved to a file when the object is not bound to a data source.

Name

Sets the name of the row. By default, body rows have no name. If existing rows in the form use the same name, the number beside the name identifies the instance for the current row. See To name and rename objects.

Default Binding

Sets the default data-binding method:

•

Normal

Enables data merging and saving options. Data values are merged and stored implicitly according to Adobe data-merging rules.

•

Global

Associates a single data value with all objects that have the same name (see To define a global field).

•	New Data Connection

Starts the New Data Connection wizard. To define a connection using the wizard, see To create a data connection to an XML schema and XML data file or To create a data connection to an OLE database.

•

None

Disables data binding. Because the object will not capture or display merged data, any information associated with the object is not written as output when the form data is saved/submitted.
