Button That Checks a box on a form and then redirects to the app homepage

I have a button with the following code that does check the box but instead of taking me to the app home page it takes me to a page with some code on it that is pasted below the formula. I have tried ...

It doesn't like the redirect. Probably the http:// but better practice is to use the URLRoot() command so try:

& URLEncode(URLRoot() & "db/bka89j884")

URLRoot will always put yourdomain@quickbase.com

    Thanks Mike, I do think I had tried this already but I tried it again. The check box worked but the redirect still took me to the code page that read.

      Oh I just realized you are missing the = sign. The original may have worked.

      "&rdr="

        That was the missing piece! Thanks Mike!
