SAIL: "Save Changes" link.

I'm building a series of sail forms, and we are wanting to use the "Save Changes" feature. The form is built from expression rules, and the portion in question is called in a nester manner (ie, top_form.sail calls choose_section_to_display.sail which calls display_section1.sail)

There are fields populated by rule inputs (ri!thevalue in the top_form.sail) and those are maintaining the value entered when the "save changes" link is used, then the form exited and returned to via "Tasks".

The values in the "display_section1.sail" are also populated by a rule input, have a validation, and save as ie:
a!textField(
label: "Stock Certificate #",
readOnly: false(),
required: false(),
value: ri!recordcd,
instructions: "Char (30)",
validations: if(
len(
ri!recordcd
) <= 30,
null,
"Enter no more than 30 characters"
),
saveI...

...nto: ri!recordcd
)

But those values are not being preserved when entered, "save changes" clicked, the form exited, and then returned to.

I have tried a number of variations on the data passing, but no luck so far. (I really need a better grasp of variable scoping in the SAIL world)

Any help would be much appreciated!

Adam, how are you populating the value of ri!recordcd? Please make sure you pass an ACP you created in node inputs.

That's got it! buried in the other ac variables, the one that mattered was being passed in directly from the PV.
