Live cycle import and auto populate data form

Hi,

I am new to using livecycle and have been searching for a while about how to import and auto populate a pdf from excel. I apologize if I’m bringing up a subject that if covered already but I have been unable to find a good description of how to do this on and off the forums. Would appreciate it if someone gave me just a basic example such as being able to auto populate a file from clicking a button and directing it to the excel file with: name, country, date of birth  categories on it.

I have livecycle 8.0

Thanks

Joe
