XForms property default value
Vote:
Hello,
I have a page template with an XForms property on. I want a specific XForm to be a default value for all pages created from this page type. What is the Default value text box expecting? A string or an integer renders nothing when creating the page other than a server error "Guid should contain 32 digits with 4 dashes when trying to open the XForm attach dialog.
Does anyone know this?
Regards

I found out the answer myself and posting it here if anyone needs it sometime.
It is indeed expecting a GUID. The only way I found to retrieve this value was by creating a page with the XForm property on, naming it something, and inserting the XForm I want to default into its property. Then, I open the Query Analyzer in SQL Server and run this query:
#15013
SELECT pr.String AS GUID
FROM tblProperty pr, tblPageDefinition pd, tblPage pa
WHERE pr.fkPageDefinitionID = pd.pkID
AND pr.fkPageID = pa.pkID
AND pa.Name LIKE '%(The page name here)%'
AND pd.Name = '(Name of the XForm property here)'
Take this value and insert into the default value text box on your page type in admin mode.
Dirty, yes. But I found no better way of doing this.
