Has anybody ever seen this? The value in this field displays in the view but not when the document is opened.
It’s a Shared Combobox, Editable field. The Use Formula For Choices value is:
“” : AllSalesReps
AllSalesReps is set when the document is opened to a list of salespeople.
The Default formula is the name of another, computed field, which value is @Name([CN]; @UserName). There is no Translation or Validation.

Subject: Had something similar
I had imported some records from Excel; they showed in the view, but in the form, no. In my case, the problem was the field name differed; I really did not find a workaround (aside from running an agent against all the documents and that was more work than it was worth because this is simply a lookup archive database and rarely used). I just decided if the user needed to see the info – just look at the view columns and scroll right - just 1 field out of perhaps 12 that did not show in the form. I did try to use a default value in the form showing both names but that did not work for me. Good luck. Cathy
Subject: Changed Default Value just to see
and used both names separated by : as the default value - this is a multi-value, text field. Then, it shows in the document, but not in the view … so for me it’s still a mixed bag. I even had used the same “formula” for the view but no luck … just thought I’d let you know. I’m changing back to “see it in the view, forget about opening the form”. Hope someone else knows the answer! Cathy
Subject: Thanks very much for the responses
This app was written for the web and it seems to work OK there but not at all in the Notes client. Unfortunately I have to do data manipulation on the Notes client side and that’s where I’m running into this trouble.
Thanks again!
