I see - use a record as a template for new record creation - so that you can have "default" values based on some existing record (not just "hard wired" in code). There was a discussion of this some time back in the group...
I think this answers it http://groups.google.com/group/web2py/browse_thread/thread/ad4e07fdaad7160d/26fd75a9b350baabbaab That discussion shows setting default w/ a fixed value, but you can do the same with "select". Hope that helps.
