Default Value's referencing object fields
I have a custom object which uses the standard Name field and I also have a custom field called display name. I'd like the display name field to default to the Standard Name field but I can't seem to get it to work. I'd love to avoid a trigger for such a trivial thing. I suppose I could use a Workflow Field update but that also seems like a bit much for such a simple task. I tried just putting Name in the Formula field but it gives the following error: Error: Field Name may not be used in this type of formula
I think I already know the answer to this but I'm hoping that I'm just somehow missing an easy way to do this without workflows or triggers.
Thanks!
