    Default Fill in a custom field

    Hi.
    I would like to fill in a custom field with the name of the current. I created the custom field but my user needs to type-in and she does not want to do that because it is a know value, the contact name. Is there a way to fill this field when she goes to this screen (Bug Report)

    TIA
    Yamil

    To do that you should use logic hooks.
