I've been using cdml tags for more than 5 years and am pretty proficient, but I must be brain dead at the moment:

I am running a couple of databases off of FM pro 5 on a win 98 box

In db "buyers guides" I have a layout "web layout" which contains fields from "buyers guide" and related fields from "qdb_co_info_web.

The call to this page is:

http://qualitydigest.com/qdb/FMPro?numbe...strar&-find

On format page all I have is the following:

[fmp-field: number]

[fmp-field: qdb_co_info_web::company]

When I execute the URL I can see that a record is found and the correct layout is showing. However, while the field "number" is displayed on the web page, the related field "company" is not.

I am really stumped. or stupid. I can't see what I am doing wrong. I've done this type of thing a million times. Really!

only thing that immediately comes to mind is to double checking all spelling, and cases for your field names. I just spent a day going through some code to find that field OrderID was incorrectly orderID and the whole thing crashed as a result.

You've obviously doublechecked that the related fields are properly linked, etc.

I think that you will need to use a Portal on the Layout.

Good Luck.
