I have a simple database being served out of FM Server 14. I now have 4 Ipads that collect a small amount of data in the field when NOT connected to the FM Server. When the Ipads return at the end of each day, I want to build a script that exports the new records to the FM Server I am struggling with this, because the export script step does not seem to allow "REMOTE" files as an option. And I don't see how I could tell the FM Server to import from the Ipads????

thanks for all the input, we found a solution....Chad

apologize for not being descriptive enough, Youre absolutely correct in the fact that the calculation is not stored so it has to be refreshed in order for the calculation of "layoutnames" to be updated. I have defined a button to do so. Therefore when a user adds a new layout it doesn't show on the list until they have pushed the refresh button. This all works well, the short coming is that the list of layouts is very long and I desire to have it condensed down by the table that it is associated with. I appreciate your help...Chad

I have a drop down list that is a list of the layout names in the file. I need to filter that list by a specific table.

I currently use the Layoutname function to create a list of layouts that I have in a file used for spreadsheets only. This list works great as it allows the user to click on the layout name from the list that they would like to view and the script merely takes them there. Now that the list has grown to a large list, I would really like to be able to filter this list down by one mechanism or another. I have tried limiting the list by the Table that it is associated with but have had no luck. Does anyone have any idea's with this thanks in advance...Chad
