<i><font color="#663300">I am totally going crazy trying to get a form to pass a parameter to another form. This is really BASIC and I feel like this is a SUPER BASIC QUESTION but here goes:

1) Form A is a modeless/one to many to many form (3 bizobjects)
Double Clicking on District Name, Contact Last Name or Marketing Date is supposed to bring up a related Modal for to edit the data for THAT bizobj

well the forms come up all right --- but I can't seem to get the modal FORM B to accept and go to the record that Form A is at!

when I call form B, I use: doform('formb', idistrictid)

then formB Init has to have code to go to the passed record id... THIS is where I am STUCK and NOT making any progress... In fact, everything I read and try makes me MORE and MORE confused!

Help would be greatly appreciated!

Need a bit more information.
A number of questions first:
Are you using a new view in the called form? or are you using the same dataenvironment?
What is your dataenvironment setting - PRIVATE or DEFAULT

Presumably you have a parameter statement in the init of the called form?

give me its name, it makes it easier to follow through.
Give me those answers and I should be able to guide you through it.
