@sPrice971 I don't quite follow what you mean by click on a link and create a change request, but I assume you are allowing them to do edits to the form.

You can use javascript to capture data from the query string url, and then set the value of a field based on that, but without knowing what you are really trying to do is kinda difficult to suggest a best route.

Let me explain in more detail.

List A is used for users to submit a request to work or pto.  Once the manager approves this, an item is created on List B (calendar).  When this is created in List B, there is a hyperlink column titled Change Request that has a link to List A's form, with the query string of the original ID.  If someone clicks this link, i want it to populate all of the fields that were originally submitted.  I have read that i can do this using Javascript in Form Settings>Custom Javascript and that i need to query the list and filter it.  I have that part down but i don't know how to set the fields to Javascript variables.  

Hi sPrice971, 

To se the fields to JavaScript variable IDs (essentially #ID's), you would open the settings of each control you need to bind, and then click on Advanced > Store Client ID in JavaScript variable (set to yes) > enter ID name.

Thank you,

@sean_fiene I know the javascript variale IDs are in the control's settings and this is how to use the fields in javascript.  I am asking how to use Javascript to query a completely seperate list.  Then filter that query and set the various fields from that query to variables.

Thanks!
