Dear List, I have three forms: Main Form, Subfile Form and Info Form.
On Submit, Main Form goes to Info Form to get a list of names for which it needs to create Subfile Form records. Each Subfile Form record will have a Name, and Main Form ID which links it to the Main Form. So “On Submit” a filter gets the names list, then calls a guide that parses out the list. It retrieves each name into a temporary field, and does a “Push Fields” to create a Subfile Form record. The problem is that calling the guide happens in Phase 1, but the Push Fields happens in Phase 3. So, by the time the push fields happens, the temporary field has been overwritten, and all Subfile records get the final name. I could make the push fields happen in Phase 1, but the Main Form/Entry ID won’t have been set. It would be nice if it could wait till Phase 3 to call the guide, but I don’t know of any way of doing that. These entries are being created via a web template, so I can’t use Active Links. One possibility would be to push both the Main Form/Entry ID and the Name List to a Parsing Form with a single record, then let the Parsing Form create the Subfile records. It seems needlessly complicated, but is there a better way? Dwayne Martin James Madison University (ARS 7.1 Patch 3, RH Linux server, Oracle 10.2 db)
