Popup for multiple-choice selection
I'm trying to create a button on a child record (purchase order line) shown as a report on a parent (job#) form. I'd like the button to show a popup that asks the user to select from a multiple choice...

This worked in a test I just did for a button on the child record on the embedded report on the Parent. It returned to the parent on saving the child.
var text Edit = URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?a=er&dfid=XX&rid=" & [Record ID#];
var text DisplayParent = URLRoot() & "db/" & [_DBID_PARENT] & "?a=dr&rid=" & [Related Parent];
$Edit
& "&NextURL=" & URLEncode($DisplayParent)
If you want to have a super mini form with just say that one multiple choice field, then make a super mini form and specify the form ID# in place of the XX. Obviously replace [_DBID_PARENT] with the table name of the parent form the Advanced Properties for the parent table.
