Using an active link guide is the correct choice. A filter guide will not be able to detect which rows have been highlighted by a user.
If you have access to the "ActionRequestSystem 6.3 Developing AR System Applications: Advanced" PDF (filename: AdvancedGuide-630.pdf), there is some useful information from page 51 to about 65. I used it to help populate fields from table columns. I assume that my "set fields" filters could easily be push fields. Actually, I just verified that my filters could use a push fields to do something similar to what you want. I also checked that active link push fields have access to my columns. I guess I don't really have a good answer for you except that I know that an active link guide is what you need to see rows selected on the client side.

On a change request, a user can add a billing area. When they click the add billing area button, a dialog box pops up called ChangeBillArea. The user selects a Billing Area by ID, and a push fields action creates a record in the ChangeBillArea form. Back on the Change Request, there is a table that pulls from a join form (ChangeBillAreaJoin) that is a join of ChangeBillArea and BillingAreas (the form that stores the billing area data). My requirement is to allow users to add multiple billing areas based on different criteria (name, state, center and division). I had asked about this before, and I've made some progress, but I'm still running into issues. I added 4 character fields with menus attached to the changebillarea form for each of the criteria. I also added a table that pulls from the BillingAreas form based on what the user selects in the menus. (User selects a state and division, table returns all results from the Billing Areas form matching that criteria) I want to allow them to select records from the table set and add those billing areas to the form. I created an active link to run in a guide (don't know if a filter guide is better?) that would do a push fields action to create the record. Problem is, I don't seem to have access to the columns in the table in my push fields action (all I really need is the ID for the billing area. I return all the data for the user, but the ID is all the join uses). I can get the data that I want in the table, but it doesn't appear that I can use it how I want to. Any ideas? Thanks much, Michael A.
