And to answer the original question (I hit send too early), its possible to change the field ID from either the old Admin Tool on the older version and the new Developer Studio on the newer version, ONLY before saving the form after creating a new field. Not after. After saving it, the only way to do it without loosing data and its relationship with its underlying objects, is to use the archgid utility.
That being said, read my previous email sent a minute ago, on a limitation / bug that I found in ARS 7.6.04 SP 4 using that utility.

I think it was possible in the old windows Administrator. If so how do you do that? _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org "Where the Answers Are, and have been for 20 years"
