Does this mean that 7.0 does not support a user input in the WHERE clause of the EDIT USING formname Action option? (WHERE columnname = @'user message'). I just want a confirmation that this is not available before I start creating my 'Custom Actions'.

Mark, A complete new GUI interface and Application Designer in R:BASE 7.0 for Windows includes the option "Custom Actions". Application Designer > Actions > Add > Custom Action That's where you would use the pre-defined and fully tested custom action to achieve the same goal. You can also take advantage of new DIALOG command to provide your end-users the option and the ability to test as well as provide custom messages, etc., before using the EDIT USING formname option. There are a lot more options in Application Designer to take advantage of. Enjoy and make sure to have fun!
