ok thanks for your feedback... it agrees with my thinking, and I don't
hear a chorus of people saying "whatever you do, don't delete THAT!!"

still have a web fixed view of the User form on my 6.3 install but in my 7.0
that was upgraded from 6.3 the view no longer exists. I too have the
orphaned buttons. My $.20 is to let them be deleted. If I remember correctly
there is no workflow related to them, they are just Form Action Fields that
are now useless on a 7.x Mid-Tier (anybody seen anything I may have missed
in my logic?).
Here is a snippet from "Release-Notes-700-ESD.pdf" on page 22.
Changes to web views for system forms
Web views for system forms have been removed because standard forms can now
be displayed through the mid tier.

Subject: just upgraded to ARS 7.0, curious behavior questoin
We've just upgraded our Test server from ARS 6.3 to ARS 7.0... no real
problems in the upgrade itself.
However, if I open the User form in the Admin tool and tweak something
(ie. move a field left then back right where it belongs) and try to save
the form, it asks me to confirm that I want to delete the fields:
Modify, New Request, New Search, Query, Submit
These appear to be buttons that one would use in a web view, but they
are not in the one and only Default Admin View of the User form.
Perhaps even more curious, if I put them in the view, you never really
see them... I can find them by using the "Find Field", and see their
properties, but you never really see them on the form.
This is curious enough that perhaps it's covered in one of the Admin 7.0
training classes, but I've never needed retraining before when doing ARS
upgrades.
Can someone point me in the right direction on this? I do need to tweak
the User form, but am uncomfortable about deleting fields I don't
understand.
