[FX.php List] Only Recid is available after FMNew() ?

[Dale Bengston]

Hi Jonathan,

FMNew() returns the record just created. If you have not put any  
restrictive parameters between the () of FMNew(), it'll give you  
everything back for that record, for whatever fields are on the  
layout you're talking to. Is your auto-entered serial number on the  
layout?

Maybe print_r() the results of your FMNew to make sure you're parsing  
it correctly for display. You might not be getting what you're  
expecting....
