Mmmmm that's not quite the type of presentation I was looking for.
I was hoping to create a table om the instruction page and show just the values with more human language instead of fieldnames.
Would the code page option be more appropriate for this perhaps?

- _anomDiebolt_8 years agoQrew EliteIt can be done with either a Rich Text page or a Code page and look anyway you want to spec it out. It is just more difficult on a Rich Text page as you have to edit HTML and there are several changes QuickBase makes to the page when it is saved that might change your code.
I only suggested the simplest way to do it using a Rich Text page because it seemed like you put some effort into creating one already and just wanted to add the parameters. - Jan-WillemSpeck8 years agoQrew Assistant CaptainFor me ( to create a page) rich text looked easier to type text.
If a code-page is easier I will go that path.
In relation to the example you made I would only like to show '30' or '2000' on the page.
IE:
".... any change request above USD <2000> must be approved within <30> days..."
I was hoping there would be something like an URL code format available that would copy the value onto the rich/code page.

Why not just put the report of your threshold records on the Dashboard. It will only have 1 record in it. Then you can make a formula to present the thresholds in a user friendly sentence and you can use HTML to format it. Ie just display the formula field on the Dashboard report. - _anomDiebolt_8 years agoQrew EliteI have to admit that this is pretty simple. Were you on the slopes or at the ski lodge when you came up with this ingenious solution?

Another thought not tested is that the report might take up a bit less space as a website element with the report url suffixed with &ifv=1
But I did not get time to test.
