Automatically populate metadata in MOSS 2007 from Adobe Form

Question

What I have:  MOSS 2007 and Adobe LiveCylce ES 9.0

What I want to happen:  When a user uploads a completed Adobe form to a document library, the metadata fields in SharePoint are automatically populated based on the fields in the Adobe form. 

Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Hi GLEN,

If your form is create by InfoPath, you can set it easy. But your form is Adobe LiveCycle ES9.0,it is difficult to achieve it out of the box. So, you may be read your adobe form by coding, then use SharePoint Event handler to fill your column.

You can refer to the following link.
