Hi Bruce,


Thanks for your patience. Please note CheckBox field in XFA has child node items which contains possible values for the field. You can obtain these valuse and set one of these values as following.

List<string>
GetCheckBoxValues(Document doc, string fieldName)<o:p></o:p>

{

XmlNode tmpl = doc.Form.XFA.GetFieldTemplate(fieldName);

XmlNodeList items = tmpl.SelectNodes("tpl:items/*", doc.Form.XFA.NamespaceManager);

List<string> res = new List<string>();

foreach (XmlNode item in items)

{

res.Add(item.InnerText);

}

return res;

}

Document doc = new Document("BCTR Main.pdf");

List<string> items = GetCheckBoxValues(doc, "BSAForm[0].Header[0].TypeOfFiling[0].initialReport[0]");

doc.Form.XFA["BSAForm[0].Header[0].TypeOfFiling[0].initialReport[0]"] = items[0];

doc.Save("result.pdf");
