Marc, We use this functionality with our 6.3 server using Mid-Tier. We use this with our Help Desk Surveys. The URL is encoded in a manner that sets a hidden field on a Display only form. An Active Link fires when the form is displayed that retrieves a title and the questions for that particular survey based on the value set in the hidden field. The URL also includes a login, blank password and Ticket Number that is saved with the Survey. Here is example of encoded URL: <a href="http://armidtier.tycoelectronics.com:81/arsys/servlet/ViewFormServ let?server=ars-prd.tycoelectronics.com&username=US012345&pwd=&form=Surve y+Form&F536870996=NCS%20Helpdesk%20Survey&F536870921=TT01489610&F5368709 76=US081447">Network and Computer Support Satisfaction Survey</a> Dave Dave Shellman

I have a display only form with a hidden field and a table. I would like to send my users an email that they click that will bring them to this display only form and set the hidden field with a value. This value is dynamic so I can't hard code it into the field, and everyone that gets the email may not have a Remedy account. We will use a generic login to process these requests. One suggestion I was given would be to build the url in hidden fields from the HTML email that is sent, but I don't see how that could set the field. Any suggestions would be great.
