Hyperlink Variables into Forms? - 4/2/2001 17:45:00   
I have read through most of the posts about putting a query string hyperlink into the form and so far haven't had much luck when trying so I need a little help.

Here's the situation:

Page 1: person sees a list of things that are called "Type" in the db. These are linked.

Page 2: When a person clicks on one of the links from page 1, it gives a list of descriptions for htat type called Description in the db. These are also linked.

Page 3: this page has the form. I want the URL parameters to be placed within the form on this page where Type and Description form fields are located. The hyperlink when on this page might look like this:

http://domain/order.asp?Type=3M+SECURITY+STRIPS&Description=BOOK+STRIP

How do i get the Type and Description to be automatically placed into the form for a person to submit on the order page. I have tried <%=Request.QueryString(fp_rs,"Type")%> and <%=Request.QueryString(fp_rs,"Description")%> in the Custom Query section but with no luck

BTW: I am using FP's wizard to do this.

Spooky

The format you will use in your query is :

'::Form::' and '::Type::'

You dont need to use the asp equivelent if using the custom query
