Is it possible to have the same field in 2 tabs in a module?

I want to add a filed in 2 tabs in a single module. I want the fields to be duplicate, i.e. whenever a field on the first tab is filled, I want to populate the field in the second tab with the same data. Is it possible to do this? I am currently using Sugar 6.5.16

Hi Rizwan Rizwan,
Have you tried formula?
Try to add same field id in second field using formula window.
Example :
Field 1 is test1_c & 2. is test2_c
Add formula for field 2 just open calculate formula & add only test1_c.
Hope it will help..

Yes, you can show same field in two tabs by editing record.php file of that particular module. Through studio, it is not possible. But updating record.php file of that module, you can display same field in two tabs. Just copy array of field in put it in next tab and arrange the indexing properly. save the record.php and click on repair rebuild link in admin. You can see one field in two tabs.

I would strongly recommend against this, unless the field is read-only, then perhaps you can get away with it.
If you edit the field you could easily end up with conflicting data in the two tabs and that can lead to a no end of trouble.
