Hmmmm OK, I may stand corrected then. Since I've only got reader,
I was only able to verify opening a PDF (created with version 4)
with a form in reader 7, attempting to change data and save it and
being told that the pdf didnt allow saving of forms - it needed
to be enabled when the form was created. From what I'd heard and
read about 7, I thought that it could enable this feature for reader 7.
cheers,
Rob

I looked into this, and came to a different conclusion. From all that
I read, it is still not possible to save form data with Acrobat Reader
7. In fact, the way that Adobe marketed the new version, I *thought*
that it was going to enable saving locally, and was quite disappointed
when it did not.
