Default Field values that disappear in OL 2003

I've published a form in the folder that it services. The form works ok but
some of the fields in the form drop their saved values. The same fields are
losing their value each time.

Example, there are 2 fields defined such as "Psn Flight" and "Psn Flight 2"
that are text fields. The field "Psn Flight 2" when saved always has a value
saved when revisited. The field "Psn Flight" when saved never has a value
saved when revisited.

What is happening?

Best regards,
Fred

Revisited how? By opening the item? By looking in a folder view?

Sue,

The values disappear by looking in the folder or opening the item again. The
value is never saved. The properties box on the form, however, shows a valid
field named and the report sheet shows that same field.

Sue,

I was mistaken! Just tried it again and when the form is closed, it displays
in the report (folder). However, when the form is opened again on that item,
the value is not there.

Does this form use separate read and compose layouts? If so, check whether the control on the read layout is bound to the desired property.
