Hi welshartnow,
Can you tell us a little bit more about exactly what you are trying to achieve? Are these basically two separate forms or is the second one an update to the entry created by the first one?
Cheers
Greg

Hi,
These are two separate forms event and venue. An event occurs at a venue. A user firstly creates the venue by completing the venue form and that gets submitted. The submission of the venue form triggers the presentation of the event form. The event form needs to show the users choice of venue. I do not wish the user to have to reselect the venue they have already created. Hence the new venue should be passed to the event form.

Hi, welshartnow - this isn’t a feature that I am aware of currently existing, unfortunately. You may need to build a plugin or other solution to pass that information between the two forms.
I’m going to move this down to the CodeShare corner for you in case other community members have had to tackle this and can help.
Thank you!
