Hi Neil,

I'm assuming he wants to pass in the primary key as a parameter to the form. Parameters are received by the init method. My method will cause a the fields to appear as blank for a small moment; then the correct data will appear when he seeks (or whatever) for the correct record in the init method. You never see the 'wrong record' this way.
