Hello,  

I'm wanting to create a button with an embedded formula to generate child records while pulling field values from parent into child.  I have most of it figured out except the pulling and pushing of values.

URLRoot() & "db/" & [_DBID_TRACKING_PARTICIPANTS] & "?a=API_GenAddRecordForm&_fid_57=" & URLEncode ([Record ID#])& "&z=" & Rurl()  

Want to drag employee ID from parent into child and place in correct field in addition to the above.

    I can I help you with the syntax but it does not seem like the right thing to do. Why don't you just go to the relationship and look up the employee ID down to the child record. It should be a look up field right?
