The SET FIELD action should be against the arserver|arform that you just opened with a 'Request_ID' = $Request_ID$ qualification.
On the CURRENT form the Diary field will only display the edit section which is null. --- John J.

I just assumed it would work since it seems so logical, but it does not. No errors, just no data showing up in my temporary field. I also tried LENGTHC($field$) and that didn't work either. Just stays blank. Any other suggestions? Curt A.

I want to display more of an indicator that there is data in a Diary field than the built-in "there is writing" or "there isn't writing" in the little book icon. Using 'Diary field' != $NULL$ doesn't work in the Run If check - it always resolves that it's Null. Is there some way to determine that there is data in a Diary field? Curt A.
