HTML or JavaScript?
So I am new to this whole HTML/javascript world. I have a button on my RFQ table "Respond to RFQ". This button is a formula rich text: "<a href=\"https://louisberger.quickbase.com/db/bpa6iq...

Amber,
It looks like your button is taking the user to a page and not editing or creating a record that is the response to the Request for Quote. Depending on the architecture of the application it could look like this. I am assuming this table structure
RFQ << REQResponse
This would add a child record to the RFQ and pre fill fields 121 and 130. It assumes that the Related Vendor and the Unique Code are fields in the record where the button is pushed. It also assumes the FID 8 will set the relationship between the RFQ and the response.
