SOLUTION - calling one form from another

I had asked for help in calling one form from another. I got several very good replies and managed to fuse them together into a solution that works for me. The following is the procedure I worked out.

I want to thank Kevin Toepke, Mikko Kuismin and Joel Fedorko for their excellent replies:

Calling form

ON-NEW-FIELD-INSTANCE (FIELD level)

	:GLOBAL.field := :block.field;
	CALL('NEWFORM');

Called form

KEY-STARTUP (FORM level)

	BEGIN
	DEFAULT_VALUE('%','GLOBAL.FIELD');
	if :GLOBAL.field = '%'
	then
	ENTER_QUERY;
	else
	EXECUTE_QUERY;
	END IF:
	END;

PRE-QUERY (BLOCK LEVEL)         DEFAULT_VALUE(:GLOBAL.FIELD,'block.field');
