Thank you!")* Hi, If you use a custom field of the table "user" it will appear on the checkout if the user isn't already logged in since he will get the registration form. So that might be ok. Otherwise, you could have both a custom user field (for storing the data) and a custom order field (for display on the checkout), and then use a massaction with a trigger "onAfterOrderCreate and an action "update the values" on the custom user field column in "operation mode" with the value order.xxx (with xxx being the custom order field column name). That way, the value of the custom order field would be copied to the custom user field after each order.
