I had that, but my manager wants them to click a button to show the message.

OK, so here is a low tech Plan B.
Create a new form which is super mini, like just a message. Make the button to open the same record in view mode in dfid=10 (or whatever the super mini form # is. Set the button to open in pop up. It will be a smaller than normal full window size.
But then the user would have to close that box. I don't believe there is a non javascript way to close the code. (Maybe with a Code Page")
But I'm not understanding in your workflow what would force the user to click the button to see the pop up.

------------------------------- AmyGosz13 years agoQrew TraineeThere are two fields on the form: 'Related Account Number' and 'Other Account Number'. They only need to populate the 'Other Account Number' field. The pop up message would state "You are moving Communications from 'Other Account Number" to 'Related Account number'. The message is to have them confirm that they entered the correct number, sort of like a double check before saving the form. The pop up box just needs to have an 'OK' on it to close it.

------------------------------ - AmyGosz13 years agoQrew TraineeTo confirm, with the code I already have which did create a button...is there no 'onclick' code that can be added? If so, how would it be written? I would even be happy to have the button create the message on the form itself (ie: show a formula field with the message) instead of a pop up box.

I believe the onclick uses Javascript.
What if you ask the users to push a button and all the button does is populate a checkbox field or a formula rich text field which edits the record and puts a red message on the record saying that they have viewed the message.
