I believe I have it almost working. The only problem I have left is if a
user opens an instance from a results list, it opens a blank form in the
in the view defined in the AL.  I expected that it would open the ticket
in the defined view, but it appears to want to open the ticket in the
default view, which fire my AL, which open a blank form in the alternate
view. Arggg.

To see what the VUI keyword is returning you could use a message box
with
that keyword as the text, would tell you what to look for in your run-if
statement

The $VUI$ keyword says its the "Label of the form view displayed in the
active window". 

Would you use something like $VUI$ LIKE "Default Admin View"? I have
tried
this, but it does not seem to be working.

About the easiest way I would prevent loops would be to only file the
AL, if
the view I'm trying to open isn't the one opening...you would do that
with
the $VUI$ keyword (that's what it's called, right?), and I personally
would
use GROUPID instead of GROUP, because of the age old problem with groups
having similar names, or groups who's name is a subset of another's

I believe this will work well for if I can figure out a couple things. 

First, if I fire on Window Open, how do you keep it from getting in a
loop?
I seem to be crashing the WUT when I try it with Open Window; After
Submit
works fine.

Second, can anyone help me with the syntax for using the making sure the
user belongs to a specific group? I assume you utilize the $GROUPS$
keyword,
but I'm not getting the results I expected thus far.

Thanks,

You could write workflow that fires on window open that has whatever
qualifications you want, that will open the window again in the view you
want, and close the previous window, or you could create different entry
points that open the form in different views, and only give permissions
to
the proper groups

Is there an easy way to have a form open in different views based on
group
membership? This is specifically through the WUT. We do not currently
use
the web-tier.

I've been reading through the documentation and so far have not seen
that
specific question covered.
