    I have a form, its working.  When I do a pdf version of it, and fill out data inside a required table, that data does now show on my end once submitted.  Can you help?

    I tested fillable PDF forms with input tables and the data is being sent when submitted through the PDF.  Is Adobe reader or Foxit being used to view the PDF?  As far as I can tell, the input table should forward form data from the fillable PDF:

    I did some more testing and it seems it might be related to the field name.  When I remove the  - from the field name, it send the data that is entered in the table:

    However, when there is a - character in the field label, no data is sent.  Try removing the - from the field label and see if the data is sent in your copy of the PDF.
