Look for a field called ‘SaveOptions’. If it exists on your form and it has ‘0’ as value it will block the save of any information on that form.

Subject: radio-button alias values

Dalia,

after reopening your form, check the document properties and check the actual value of your field.

I guess you might have some misunderstandings with alias values in your field definition. Remember, if you reopen the document, the radio button will always highlight the choice associated with the ALIAS value.

Example:

you have a radion button field with the following choices:

RED | COLOR1

BLUE | COLOR2

Originally, the user sees RED and BLUE, and chooses one of them. However, the document actually stores COLOR1 or COLOR2, respectively, as they are the alias-values.

If you reopen the document, the radio button will display RED only if the field value is COLOR1. It will not display anything if the actual field value is RED or any other value.

(Alias values come in very handy in a LOT of situations, so you actually may REALLY want to use them).

A common way to create problems like this is to have an input-translation formula associated with your radio-button field, or to run any “onSave” scripts which change field values.

Have fun,

Stephan
