Hi atanunu,

As per the debug, the value is under this path:
{var:read_data10.0.Data10.SCHUAschoolid}


If you are using only 1 result then set the "data read" to return the first record only and use this:
{var:read_data10.Data10.SCHUAschoolid}


The model name must be included.

Best regards,
Max

Thanks Sir,

it worked perfectly, but how can I pass it as form data using the code below
<?php 
$this->data['Perfect'] = $this->data['Data10']['SCHUAschoolid'];
?>

Hi atanunu ,

There are several ways, one is to add a hidden input to your form with the name=Perfect

You could also look up this information after the form submits if you don't need to display it.

Thanks Sir,

I had tried different ways to look up the information; as I need to turn it to form data {data:} with out displaying or revealing it in anyway.

Kindly assist further.

Hi atanunu,

Why do you want to put the info in the form data ?

You can use this in a PHP function:

$this->data['perfect'] = $this->get("read_data10.0.Data10.SCHUAschoolid");

but its really unnecessary as the value can be retrieved by the syntax I posted before.

Thanks Sir,

I had used this format in CF V5 form, i am migrating to CF V6 and CC V6 and want to maintain the same procedure as I am not yet good on the new versions.

It worked perfectly. Thanks a lot for your support
