"Field is missing" solutions

[lzeng]

Hi there:

I get an error 102 - "Field is missing" when I wish to edit a form. I used the following CDML tags:

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-db" VALUE="Sample.fp5">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-format" VALUE="r.htm">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-lay" VALUE="Layout #1">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-RecID" VALUE="[FMP-CurrentRecID]">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-ModID" VALUE="[FMP-CurrentModID]">

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="-error" VALUE="error.htm">

in the body are the forms, then finally I have:

<INPUT TYPE="submit" NAME="-Edit" VALUE="Edit This Record">

"Layout #1" includes all the fields in the database Sample.fp5. So, what's the problem?

Thanks in advance for your kind help!

There must be more CDML tags than these, because you haven't included any fields to -edit with.

On both the layout specified in the -lay tag, and in the fields on the format file, check and double-check the spelling of the field names and make sure they are identical. Watch for leading and trailing spaces.
