I still really don't understand. Do you want to use her to add a record and then are you saying you want to learn the user on that record and view mode on a certain form or land the user in edit mode on a certain platform. And then why are you redirecting to her page after that? I am still quite confused about the workflow you were trying to achieve.

So I have two forms in a table. One used to add new records and the other a default form that is used to edit records. The problem is I need QuickBase to change a checkbox to checked on the form that is used to add new records - but currently Quickbase is not letting me do both simultaneously with the button formula (add the record and edit to checked). Not sure if that clears things up a bit

- Try putting that field on the form in a field hidden by a form rule and changing the URL to this
URLRoot() & "db/" & [_DBID_TABLE_1] & "?a=API_GenAddRecordForm&apptoken=XX3"
& "&dfid=10"
& "&_fid_3=" & URLEncode ([Record ID#])
& "&_fid_134=1"
& "&NextURL=" & URLEncode (XXXXX a=showpage&pageid=12")

------------------------------- That's sounds impossible. The API is just putting the user into Add Record mode.

Figured it out. Thanks!
