In the immortal words of Homer Simpson.....Doh!!!!!!
I hate asking a question only to find the answer is so remarkably simple and somewhat obvious. The list once again saves the day. Andy L.

Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2007 4:18 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Another Rookie Active Link Question ** I created an Active Link that's triggered by a button push on a form. The Active Link opens a different form in Submit mode (Open Window action) and I have field mapping setup for several fields from the original form over the newly opened one. So far, so good. My problem is that the form opened from the Active Link is not loading its default values for the fields that are not having values mapped to them. I have some hidden fields that drive some menu options and since their values are not being loaded, the menus are not working. The fields in question are mostly radio buttons and I tried having the active link map those values by simply typing the default value in the mapping setup, but that does not appear to work. I could set up some temp fields on the originating form and have those values mapped to the hidden fields, but I would have thought there was a way to have the default values populated on the form opened by the Open Window action. I see there is a check box for "Load Default Values" on the active link, but then it will not let me map any of the fields. Andy L.
