Hi Lisa,
I am sure you know all of this, however, I will just say it anyway.
If you decide to copy all the fields to a normal form and you copy the Display 
only fields to a regular form, you have a chance to change them to regular 
field properties before you save. If not they will remain Display Only there 
also.

If you choose to stay with the display only form, you could add the old reset 
button that calls the active link to restore the fields to what you set them to 
on the open form command when you first open the form.
That way the users have a restart point if needed.

There are many ways to go here.

Respectfully,

Lisa,
You should be able to easily copy the fields from your display only form to 
your new regular form . . .It doesn't matter that the fields, when copied, will 
remain display only. Obviously, you won't need the page fields and you won't 
need to "pretty up" the regular form unless absolutely necessary. I would just 
copy the fields over and be done with it.

Yes, it is a Display Only form.  Sorry, I should have mentioned that.  

I'll probably take your regular form template suggestion.  I have about 4 pages 
that could be clicked and every time they lose focus, I would like everything 
would be cleared.

Even though I would have to create the regular form and create all of the 
fields (with the same id's), it would be better than creating a set fields 
active link (4 or 5 of them) and having 50 or 60 set Field to $Null$ for each 
field and each active link.  

I just wish there was a process that I could run, but that was just wishful 
thinking...

Thanks so much for the tip!!!!


Lisa

Lisa,
Is your "current form" a Display Only form? If so, this is why you can't select 
it. If it's not, there should be no reason that you can't.

Thanks for the suggestion, but the Clear All that I need is on the current 
form, so when I try to select the Read Value for Field From: it won't let me 
select the current form.

I need to clear all the fields when I lose focus from a page field.

Active Link: SetAllFieldsNull
Form: <Your Form Name>
Execute On: Button <Your Button>
Run If: $NULL$
If Action: Set Fields
Read Value For Field From: <Your Form Name> (not Current Screen. The SAME form 
the Active Link executes on) Set Field If: 0 = 1 If No Requests Match: Set 
Fields To NULL If Multiple Requests Match: <not a concern since 0 never equals 
1>

Check the Matching IDs checkbox. This will clear ALL of your fields.

Hope This Helps

I hope someone replies to this with a better solution.  The only thing I can 
think of is to do a set fields action and set all the fields to NULL.  That 
does not seem like the best solution.  I look through the documentation for 
something like "PERFORM-ACTION-TABLE-CLEAR <table_field_ID>", but i didn't see 
anything for fields.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
