After all these years I never knew about creating an ARNotification view. I love this list!!

Claire, Make sure your ARNotification does not have any page holders in it. If it does, then that view is ignored for the purpose your trying to get out of it. (As I quoted in this thread before...) v5.1.2 "Dev_AR_Apps_Basic_English.pdf" pg 498 says this: " The order of fields included in an email notification is strictly based upon their arrangement in the form view. Using their X and Y coordinates, the order of fields begins top left to right, then down (in a zigzag-like pattern). Fields excluded from the form's default view are randomly included at the bottom of the list. If a form includes page fields, the pages are ignored. The order of fields included in the notification is still based on their actual X and Y coordinates in the form. To guarantee the order of fields in a notification, you can create a special view named ARNotification. Make sure that you exclude any page fields from this view, which uses the zig-zag pattern described above for field order in notifications. Otherwise, notifications will default to the default view. If there is no default view, the first view listed is used.
