LJ. And the real problem is that the filter has no idea if it was call in the context of an AL Push action, FL Push action, Web Service call, or a Client "Submit/Modify" action. It just knows that the SERVER is doing a Submit or Modify and not how it was asked to do that type of transaction. ( So I doubt you can solve this problem, with the restrictions requested, "properly" without some kind of "flag" between the Client and Server, or Server and Client.)
And even worst than that, there could be other client settings that alter what values are on the client after a Submit/Modify. (like "keep previous after submit" or "Clear all after Submit".) ARS tenet: What must always or NEVER happen needs to be a Filter. ( Business Rules ) What could happen, depending on a user choice, should most likely be an active link. ( User Help functions.) So if the "Button push" must always happen when the filter detects some condition then that workflow needs to be in Filters and not Active Links. (And if the button could also be user requested then it likely should be changed to pass a flag to trigger the same filters in question to to their job as part of a Modify action.) -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Love, then teach Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap....

** you will notice that the PERFORM ACTION ACTIVE LINK says it runs in AL but not in F/E...so unless your using a Filter to set a flag and having an AL fire after submit/modify to check that flag....unless you have an AL that is doing a push to the form that is having the filter fire...then you could just have another AL later in execution order do a check to see that the flag is set...and then push the button if it is... ________________________________

Hi, Need solution for the following problem: i wrote runprocess :PERFORM ACTION ACTIVE LINK 1 ("button")in filter in submit mode.This will call another set of active link which was written on that button. If i write this PERFORM ACTION ACTIVE LINK 1 in activelink,it is working fine by calling all those activelink which are written for that button.But i wrote this action in filter.It is giving error. I need to run in filter.Do we have any other way to work this process in filter Thanks Kalyan.
