Hi Masha,
AFAIK the defaults are only set when the form is in new mode (listers please correct me if I'm wrong). Alternatively, you can write an active link to set the field to a value when $OPERATION$ = Query. HTH, Matt Matthew C.

I am inheriting couple-year-old system and have a question about NEW/SEARCH form appearance. I have a form that has defaults set for several fields in New state but in Search they are blank. At first I thought this would be set in view's but I am not finding anything like that. Does anyone have any idea where the defaults would be set that would differ between NEW and SEARCH modes? I have ARS6.3 with Help Desk.
