Populate form field from an another page

I have a schedule that when clients click on a specific button it will send them to the register page but will populate the city they chose from the schedule page.

how will I go about doing this using DataAssist? or will this have to be had coded?

Note: I have the cities in a database

does the form on the schedule page post to the registration page?

I need a little more details on the work flow

Its not a form on the schedule page it just list of dates and locations of our seminars. I have a link for each location that when a client clicks on it it will populate the Select City field of the form.

ok, the links should pass the state ID a url variable for example:

registration.php?id=22

My example uses a URL variable named "id"

on the bindings panel, click the plus button and select URL variable and name it "id" (if your link uses a different name, use that instead)

on the registration page, create a recordset to return the states from the states table.

select the states list and in the properties inspector, click the dynamic button.

Set the list to populate from the state recordset.

use the ID column for the value, and the state name column for the label, in the select value equal to option, click the lightning bolt icon and select the URL variable binding.
