Default Creating Internal forms

I created a form that looks the same in both the compose and read pages.
But when I fill out the form in the compose and send it, the receiver just
gets the blank form.

How do I connect the fields from the compose page to fields on the read page?

For future use, you avoid all these problems by not using a split form design.
Make sure, before you design any controls that the form is not split into
compose and read forms. Uncheck the box on the forms menu that says to use
separate forms. If the form is not split, then anything you see in the compose
form, will be visible in the read form.

If you do want to use a split form, the design all the common elements in
unsplit form mode, and the add the unique elements to each form afterwards.
That way the values in the common controls will auto-load from the compose to
the read form.
