Thanks Misi!! That worked perfectly. I didn't know a diary field behaved that way.
You learn something new everyday, which is not that hard when you know very little to start with (-: Andy L.

This suggestion would require two extra API-calls from the client, to the arserver and to the database, which is bad for performance. I would suggest that you instead create a Display-Only Selection-Field called DiaryFlag with the values Yes/No. Creat a filter that triggers on GetEntry, with the following Run If: ('Diary' = $NULL$) If Action: DiaryFlag = No Else Action: DiaryFlag = Yes Best Regards - Misi, RRR AB, http://www.rrr.se Products from RRR Scandinavia: * RRR|License - Not enough Remedy licenses?
