LJ: The field was showing Read/Write, but it was Display Only in the Entry Mode. I guess I copied this field from the Display Only form. Following the steps you provided, it did allow me to change the Entry Mode to Optional and the field now saves data. I just need to go back and redirect the push action from the Display Only form to this "new" field.
Thanks to all that responded.

If you copy the field, delete it, save the form, paste it back onto the form, then change it's type to optional, then re-save the form, you should be good to be able to start saving data in the field.

One field (an optional field) never gets populated in the push. I can go to Form B and enter data in the field and save. The data is still there in the field after the save. If I refresh the form, the data is gone. So, I go out to Oracle and do a desc, and the field is not there. I tried moving that field and saving the form, but the column still does not show. Solaris 10 Oracle 10g (10.2.0) Next step? I was thinking of deleting the field and recreating - but I was wondering if someone else had experienced this issue. Kelvin R.
