In 6.3 I tried to do just what Dwayne is wanting and found you could not set the highlite on multiple rows thru workflow. I had to settle with making a "Selected" column and displaying that when re-displaying the list to the user. Fred

Remedy knows if the row is selected using the $ROWSELECTED$ keyword. I believe it even knows which row was selected as the primary and which was selected as the secondary. 2. In order to highlite a row you need to reference the table name and a row number in a set fields action. Page 659 in 6.3 basic guide has everything you need to know. Look for a Workflow Extras section in the 7 docs.

I want the user to be able to hi-lite table rows, save the entry, and have those same table rows hi-lited when the entry is re-displayed. So the user will cntl-click several rows to hi-lite them. Then on save, an Active Link Guide will walk the table, and if the row is hi-lited it will write the Entry ID for the row into a Char field. But how does it know if the row is hi-lited? On Display, another AL Guide will walk the table, and if Char Field is LIKE "%" + 'Entry ID col' + "%" it will hi-lite the row. But how does it do that? Actually, I'd be happy if somebody could point out where this is explained in the manual.
