Thanks Fred, When I do: https://remedy.jmu.edu/arsys/forms/rem2/GN%3AExchangeAcctAction?mode=Submit
The system augments the url to: https://remedy.jmu.edu/arsys/forms/rem2/GN%3AExchangeAcctAction/Default+Admin+View/?mode=Submit&cacheid=cdcab909 (note the slash before the "?") and I get a blank window. That's in Firefox. In IE it displays the form, but in Search mode. (Before it was returning me to the login.) There seems to be something about the "mode" variable that isn't working.

The reason you get the search mode without any parameters is that the default mode of the form is search.

In IE I keep getting back to the login window. If I just do https://remedy.jmu.edu/arsys/forms/rem2/GN%3AExchangeAcctAction, it opens the form in Search mode.

I have tried various combinations of: https://[web server]/arsys/forms/[ARS server]/[FormName]/&F540003300=abcdefg/&mode=Submit Sometimes the field value gets filled in and sometimes it doesn't, but the mode is always Search. What am I doing wrong?
