The only caveat is that I don't see a way to just change the view of the 
current window you have open, you'll have to launch a new window of that schema 
in the new view (via a variety of options) and then close the existing one 
(again, many different and subtly different way).   You can change FIELDS by 
turning them on or off individually, but not invoke an entire new view on an 
already open/loaded window that I'm aware of.

As for detecting and triggering the decision...
Use the $OPERATION$ keyword to tell what mode you are in and adjust the view 
accordingly at the Active Link level.  Your trigger condition for checking what 
view you're in could be "Window Loaded" or "Search"

One example would be...

Active Link Name: "Test Me"
Form Name: "Test Form"
Execute On: Window Loaded
Run If: $OPERATION$ = "SET"
If Action: New Action1: Open Window



For more details on $OPERATION$, hit the pdf document (or book if you have them)

BMC Remedy Action Request System 7.0 Workflow Objects 

page 209

The table says "Filter execution conditions" but it works in Active Links as 
well.

Good luck!

Subject: Changing Form View Depending on Operation

Hello,



Hopefully I can explain this...



I have a form that I open in Search mode, opens a particular view (Query
View).  Once the search button is clicked to perform the search, I would
like the resulting form that opens in Modify mode open in a different
view (Modify View).





I haven't seen any settings or commands that might be available that
would change the view that you are using.



And other than maybe using field 1005 for the Advanced Search Bar, I am
unaware of a way to capture the search qualification in a separate field
should the user enter data directly into one or more fields, then use
the data from that field in the qualification of an Open Window action.





Can this be accomplished? 



Thanks!

Mike
