Hello Listers, I was able run a test on 4 forms all using the same vertical navigation field and a common active link. I guess I am misinterpreting the documents.
For my other question I have confirmed that you can put Form Command buttons into a navigation field. They work in the WUT but when I go to the Midtier they will not fire their actions. I flushed the cache and logged out and back into the Midtier. One thing that I noticed is the Query button. It changes its properties when I go from New Request to New Search, becoming disabled on the New Request screen in Midtier. Submit and Modify do not change. Any insight would be appreciated. --- John J. Reiser Senior Software Development Analyst Remedy Administrator/Developer Lockheed Martin - MS2 The star that burns twice as bright burns half as long.

To overcome this limitation, you can create common workflow for the navigation fields on several forms. Seems contradictory to me. If I make a Nav Field and copy it's structure to multiple forms and then create shared active links to fire on the Button/Menu Item action I should have the functionality I desire. Correct? Next question. Why would the Form Command buttons (Submit, Query, New Search etc) stop functioning if they get imported into a Navigation Field. The database ID stays the same (1005 etc) but they will not function even with the permissions set properly. Will I have to create Active Links to perform the same functionality? I'm trying to put all of the controls for a Midtier environment into the Vertical Navigation and hide the Web banner. Thanks, --- John J.
