I think so. Not sure what your question was, but you should be able to do what you want. Personally, I put these forms in the group footer, using conditionals to trigger which form is displayed. For example, in Profiles.GroupFooter I display their profile information, and if the authid = the page name it adds an edit button. If they click the edit button the page reloads displaying an edit form (in the same GroupFooter). They save the changes and it reverts back to the view mode. One page and the whole profiles group is viewable, editable, etc. See: http://www.fast.st/zap/pmwiki.php?n=Profiles.GroupFooter?action=source Hope this helps.
