Hidden field not showing in results

J

Jay

I have added a hidden field into a form with the name=customer and
value=internal but it doesn't show up in the results file or the
e-mailed results. I can see in the HTML view that the code <input
type="hidden" name="customer" value="internal"> was included. Why
doesn't it show up in the results, I wonder. Driving me crazy. What
am I doing wrong? I appreciatte the help...

Check form properties, saved fields and make sure the field name is included
or in HTML View add the field name in the grey code.

1. Right-click the form, then choose Form Properties.
2. If Send To is selected:
a. Click the Options button, and then the Saved Fields
tab.
b. Under Form Fields to Save, add a line containing
your form field ("customer").
c. Click OK.
3. If Send To DataBase is selected:
a. Click the Options button, and then the Saved Fields
tab.
b. Click the Add button.
c. Specify the form field you want to save, and the
name of the database field that will receive it.
d. Click OK.
