Wow, that is clever! And, works just how I want it to. Thanks so much for
the pointer.

Would this do the job?
form = SQLFORM.factory(*fields)
if form.process().accepted:
# update the database here
form2 = SQLFORM.factory(*fields)
form2.vars['state'] = form.vars.state
form2.process()
else:
form2 = form
return
Here is what I'm talking about:
def update_something():
fields = [Field('name'),
Field('address', 'text'),
Field('city'),
Field('state'),
Field('zip_code')]
form = SQLFORM.factory(*fields)
if form.process().accepted:

Isn't "the next time through the method" when there is a new submission,
which would have the saved value in it (unless the user changed it)? Maybe
a sample of your code would make things clearer.

Yes, but I need that value on the next time through the method. Therefore
I have to save it to my session and grab it the next time in. Am I missing

Since the value in question is part of the current submission, isn't the
value available in form.vars?

I was hoping to avoid those tricks. I too have done this by storing values
in the session to be redisplayed. I was hoping that the keepopts argument
to SQLFORM would allow you to specify which fields to keep, but it seems
that is used for something else.

I recall doing this by "pre-populating" the field you want to keep with the
old value.
