>>HI!
>>I am using parametrized view but the only thing I dont't understand is how can I set the parameters initially when the form is executed. I don't have any problem with REQUERY. Its just the initialization that asks me for an input value. I am wondering how can I assign a value prior to this.

That's what I do. Ed, I think you and I are pretty much on the same page about how to get to data. :)
