@ZOHO Creator Support Team:

While doing some experiments, I found that while I can do this ... 

http://creator.zoho.com/scriptedlogic/myApp/#View:myListView?Country=Kenya

... and get ZOHO Creator to display the View with just the record with matching Country field value ... I can not do ...

http://creator.zoho.com/scriptedlogic/myApp/#View:myListView?ID=xxxx9000000123yyyy

... xxxx and yyy have been redacted here for privacy reasons ... ZOHO Creator returns ALL records in myView.

Was this always so ? ...If so, any reason for it ?

Added Later:

Did some more digging ... looks like the ID column must be visible in the List View for it to work ... why is this so ? ... why can't one specify a criteria that includes a field/column that is not displayed in the View ?
