Passing control values to response forms

[Pete]

Hi,

When a user responses to a form that is sent to them and
they click on a response form tab, how can I pass values
from email sent to them to the response email form?
Basically asking how do you pass variables from fields
from one form to another.

Thanks,

Pete

If the original form and the reply form have the same properties defined, if
the user replies to the original form, the reply form fields should
automatically get populated with the values from the original form. If
that's not the scenario you're using, tell us what you mean by "click on a
response form tab"?

Ok when a user clicks on a response tab on our custom
form in the action I have it setup to open another custom
form to send a reply back to orig user. Now in the second
form that get opened I would like the values from first
form added or copied to the second form.

Thanks,
Pete

Do both forms contain the same fields? Are they both published to the
Organizational Forms or Personal Forms (for all users) library?

I'm still not sure what "clicks on a response tab" means. What is "a
response tab"?
