JavaScript checkbox

Hello,
I created a form in Adobe and I have a checkbox called "precours" that should take the value from another field called "cours" if it is checked. Then this value is taken into another field called "hebdo". How can I make it so that when you click the checkbox once, the value appears directly in the "hebdo" field?

Thank you in advance for your support!
Configuration: Mac OS X Safari 531.21.10

    Which Adobe software?
    Flash, Fireworks, Acrobat Pro? The language is not the same in all these software.

    You need to:

    display the properties of your checkbox (the starting one) with right click properties.
    after giving it a unique identifier (name) you need to go to the action tab and add code there

    Here is basically what you will need in this code:

    how to find a field 
    this.getField("FieldName")

    so to get the associated value of the field 
    this.getField("FieldName").value


    As for if statements and other conditional structures, they work like JavaScript.

    Your code should look like this: 

    if (this.getField("course").value == "checked"){ this.getField("precourse").value = "checked"; this.getField("weekly").value = "checked"; }

      It works great! But there's a small problem: if you uncheck it, the value of "hebdo" is still visible, whereas it's the checkbox that validates it!

    ben du coup: 

    if (this.getField("cours").value == "checked"){ this.getField("precours").value = "checked"; this.getField("hebdo").value = "checked"; } else this.getField("precours").value = ""; this.getField("hebdo").value = ""; }


    si ça ne marche pas essaye avec this.getField("precours").value = false;

      Hello,
      Thank you so much for this working script! However, my form (Adobe ACROBAT) is finished, but when I send it to someone for filling, there’s an error message like "no access to this method due to security concerns." There’s no protection on the document, so I’m puzzled.
      Thank you in advance for your support.

    I believe this is beyond my skills, note the exact message is better. Because "something like that" is not very precise.
