Acrobat Reader 7.0.8 - Not being able to import XML (form data)

Hi,

On a Windows OS, I used Adobe Designer 7.0 to create a simple PDF static form .
I then opened that form with Adobe Acrobat Reader 7.0.8 on Mac OS X, filled some fields and save the data as an XML (through the "Submit to email" action button). If I re-open the same form, I would like to re-import in that form the data I saved in the XML file but... I can't find any menu input that would allow me to do so.

If I try the same operation (importing the data) with Acrobat Reader 7.0 (professional) on the Windows OS, it works. It the import functionnality not present with the standard edition of Acrobat Reader -or- is it linked to features available or not depending the platform.

What am I missing?

Thx. Regards,
Olivier.

Reader does not have form import capabilities. For that you'd need to
buy Acrobat Standard or Acrobat Professional.

HOWEVER, you might be able to OPEN the XML data directly. So long as
the orignial form has not moved, it MIGHT locate and fill it.
