If I understand correctly, both your methods require me to specify the first field.

I remember I have seen a method which doesn't require me to meddle with each form. Any idea?


>Another option, almost identical is have the property on the form as an OBJECT reference and have it set from the init object of what should be the first object during add mode. You can do the same for an edit mode if some fields are disabled...
