Hi!
I am using Dreamweaver MX and .aspx, I have a form with multiple steps which loads on the same page. This page is bound to an Access database. From one step to the other, user presses button. At the end of the page after all the steps, there is a summary of all the fields to be updated and a submit button. When I create an update record via Dreamweaver menu, Dreamweaver create a hidden field. As soon as the first 'next' button is pressed by the user, it gives me an error because the form is not complete and the updated record can not be transmitted.
What I would like to do is have a condition on the hidden field that says that it can't run before last step in the form. or replace the hidden field with a button.
Please help.

You could create another hidden field that you control yourself.

Make sure it has no value in the first n-1 pages. On the last page, set its value to TRUE or to whatever value makes sense.

Then, right above the code that DW has inserted for the database update, add code like this:

If Request.Form("txtMyHiddenField") = "TRUE" Then

  ' update code goes here

End If

This way, the code will only be executed when you're on the last page.

Cheers,

Imar

Thanks for your feedback.
Unfortunately, there is only 1 page with multiple forms that's reloaded everytime the user presses the next button.
So the 'Update Record' hidden field is present from the start. How do i tamper with the Update record script to only run when at the end of the forms?

Yes, I know. If they were separate pages, you wouldn't have the problem in the first place ;) Instead of the term Page I should have used Step, I guess.

What determines your "last step"? How does the application know you're on the last step? You should use that information to stop the Update behavior from running.....

Thanks Imar. I have recreated the pages instead of having steps in the same page and now it works....
