Copy Part of Record

Question

I had a URL that would copy the entire record, but I am needing the button to only copy one section of the form. Is there a way to do that?

URLRoot()&"db/bqmcifprg?a=GenCopyRecord&rid="&[Record ID#]

Hi Sarah, you would need to make a formula URL button to Add a record and pre-populate certain fields. Post back if you need help with the syntax for that.

np,The goal here is to put up an add record form with some of the fields filled in.Formula URL fieldURLRoot() &amp; "db/" &amp; dbid() &amp; "?act=API_GenAddRecordForm&amp; "&amp;_fid_10=" &amp; URLEncode([field name here])&amp; "&amp;_fid_11=" &amp; URLEncode([field name here])&amp; "&amp;_fid_12=" &amp; URLEncode([field name here])&amp; "&amp;_fid_13=" &amp; URLEncode([field name here])You can get the field IDs form the Usage tab of the field or by right clicking the field name on the form in view mode of a record.------------------------------Mark Shnier (YQC)Quick Base Solution ProviderYour Quick Base Coachhttp://QuickBaseCoach.commark.shnier@gmail.com------------------------------
