Form update trick

I need to have “FormA” prompt the user for a customer name, and have the name be saved in “FormB”. I was thinking of using @SetField, but this command appears to only work with the current open form. What is the best method to prompt a user for input, but have the data be saved to another Form?

Hi

I work more better with LS, this is a code, I hope it help you:

Dim Sesion As New NotesSession

Set db= Sesion.currentdatabase

Set view = db.GetView( “SSM” )

llave = Inputbox(“Document Key”)

Set doc = view.GetDocumentByKey( llave )

If doc Is Nothing Then

'If doesn´t exist, I create the doc.	

Set newdoc = db.CreateDocument

With newdoc

   .ReplaceItemValue "Form", "SSM" 'Assing Form name

   .ReplaceItemValue "Key", llave   'Replace field value... 

   .Save True, True

End With

Else

'If exist, update doc		

With doc

   .ReplaceItemValue "Key", llave   'Replace field value... 

   .Save True, True

End With

End if

'Note: SSM View is sorting by Key field.
