ALL data shows in view, but only some data shows in form

I created a form with 10 fields, created a view to display the 10 fields, then imported data from a Lotus WK4 spreadsheet. Worked perfectly. Forms populated with data, views showed the data from all ten fields, and I can drill down from the view to the individual form and see the imported data. So far, so good.

Then I copied the original form, renamed the form, changed a few of the fields so that it now has only 6 fields, made a different view, and imported different data. All the imported data shows up in the new view, but only one of the fields populates in the form. But, the data is definitely there. So, why is only 1 form field showing data, but 5 form fields show blank?

Of course, I searched through my Notes textbook library, Notes online help, and through Notes.Net…no joy.

Your help is much appreciated.

How are you importing the data? Via an agent? Using File-Import with the old form name? new form name? View defined? WK3 defined?

To me, it sounds like you are importing the data with the wrong field names. Compare field names in the view, the doc, and the forms.
