I am on 7.0.1000.5. This has always been a bug with NT since version 6. Please follow my instructions carefully. This issue is very reproducible, I can reproduce it every time.

The issue still persists, but I realize the reason. After changing the value in the Order quantity field, the user has to click inside another field in the form, for the value in the "Order Qty:" field to populate the "Qty:" field. If you Right click immediately after entering the value in 'Order Qty' field and save the template, the "Qty:" field never gets updated.

Monpere,

Yes this would be the case as it doesn't set until you click out of the field or click enter on your keyboard to set the value. It would not update or save if you do not click out of the field.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
