Ok here is what happens:

1. I created a list in SharePoint OOB

2. I then created a qlistview webpart which is just displaying the list from SharePoint

3. I created a form using qlistform webpart which inputs the information into my list.  The form also referes to other static lists (but just to autofill some information for example the user selects the Project ID and the description auto-populates.

4.I went back to my qlistview webpart (ezedit – viewed lists – edit and then I copied the URL from my qlistform into the "New Form URL" option.  This works successfully so that when I click the context menu on qlistview and select "new," I am redirected to qlistform I just created and can enter information

5. Right now – If I click context menu – edit properties I am directed to an out of the box form to edit the information.  What I want is to be directed to the quest form

6. So, I copied my qlistform that I already created and placed it on a different page.  I changed form type from new to edit.  Once I click ok I get the HTTP parameter ID error.  As dicussed I go to the URL: http:/…./myedit and add ?ID=1 which does not work

7. I then use a different field "Project ID" so I do /myedit?Project ID=1 and I still get an error

8.  I change the url to /myedit?Project ID=35 and now the correct entry is displayed (I guess once I delete entries from my list – it does not start over  with "1" but keeps a numerical count

9. So I have the editfield form displayed with ?ProjectID=35 from my URL.  I have no idea what to do from here – the computer based training just stops.

10.  I copy the link from the qlistform (the one for editing) into qlistview (the same way I did it for the displaying new items except I paste it in the "Edit Form URL" option)  The link does not include the ProjectID=35 part…just the link of where the qlistform is located. 

11.  Now on my qlistview webpart when I click edit properties I am redirected to a page but get an error saying:

No item exists at http://…/myedit.aspx?Source=http://…PageView=Shared&ID=35.  It may have been deleted or renamed by another user.
