value from previous record in new record

Hi,

I want to add the value of a previous record into a new record as a suggestion for the user. I created a view (with one record) to select the value, but when I use the select as field type the user has no option to overwrite. Any suggestion how to solve this?

You can use the AutoSuggest feature (Edit Tag is "TEXT") so the user can type in his own text. Read:

Thanks for the answer.

I already tried this one, by linking to the table, but I don't get any default value showing. The table has 2 columns, one with the value to be suggested and one with an Id (always 1) and I use the Id to link the table to the field, and use 1 as default value. But in stead of the value to be suggetsed 1 is displeyed.

OK, it works now, obviously overlooked one setting.
