Field not taking the values from the document

Hi,

This is what needs to be implemented.

There are two views and in both the views there is a button which creats a new document. This document is created from the same form.

There are two fields in the form which should collect value from the selected document.

For e.g. if user is in view A then when user clicks button B with a document selected then new opened form has values from the document in view A.

Also, if user is in view A’ then when user clicks button B’ with a document selected. The new opened form should have values from document in view A’.

How to implement this.

I tried by changin the property of the form such as form type-response and selected Formulas inherit calues from selected document but no effect…

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

A document does not have to be of a response type to inherit values.

It’s not enough to tick the “formulas inherit values” box. You must also write default value formulas for the fields that you want to inherit values into. This is explained in the Designer help.
