Hi,

I created a form with two sections.

The first one named "Series", the second one named "Crew".

When I input the series data in the database, I enter in the "CREW" table, the members of the show's teaù (actors, directors, ...)

To access to the section "Crew", I insert a button "+ Equipe". I selected "Open Web Page" for both buttons Action property and enter "#Crew | region" in the URL box and "#Series | region" in the "Return" button's URL box.
Nothing happens when I click on the buttons.

Here's a sample database.

It were nice if someone could help, please.

o access to the section "Crew", I insert a button "+ Equipe". I selected "Open Web Page" for both buttons Action property and enter "#Crew | region" in the URL box and "#Series | region" in the "Return" button's URL box.
Nothing happens when I click on the buttons.

"#Crew | region" and "#Series | region" are not valid URLs
For instance, when I insert "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URL" into the URL property of your button + Equipe
Then the button works as advertised

It appears you are attempting to create a multipage form. Since a Form document is a Writer page, it might be possible using text ranges but I’ve never seen that done successfully.

I usually create separate form documents and use macros to open and close them.

For some years ago, I created a turf database, inserting 3 sections linked exactly the same way, and it worked perfectly.

Here is that database:

Place your form in edit mode
Select the Button what give a problem
use the dialog in which you can edit a Hyperlink( menu --> Insert--> Hyperlink).

The result is that there are no spaces in the Hyperlink and you have spaces in the Hyperlink.

It is also possible that you can edit it by hand but If have not test that.

You're right RPG, removing the spaces, my buttons work very well.

But how could it be ? In my turf database joined to the post, the buttons work with spaces

I have no answer on your question in the last post. But I have the idea that there are also no spaces.

I agree with UnklDonald418 that separate forms work better. I did use frames in forms in the same way as Neelix use sections but I stopped with the frames and make simple forms.
