Is it possible to get conditional value lists to display in a customised order?

Yes, of course it is! Moral of this story is "Think before you post!" [This message has been edited by Coops (edited February 07, 2001).]

Is it possible to have a conditional Menu in a portal?

I have a multi-user solution used by both Mac & Windows users. I have had a request to have the number of copies printed defined by the user but NOT via the print dialog!?!?! Is this possible, I think not but prove me wrong (Please!!)

Thanx Chuck, That hit the mark spot on you're a 24 Carat diamond geeza!! Regards Coops

Thanx Chuck, It sort of helps as I know diddly squit about AS. I had an inherited file that worked in 4 but not in 5 all it displayed was ^0 in the message box, as I no longer have that file I can't give you more info, Sorry. What I want to do is display a dialog with a field value in the message choice from a database called dictionary, I then want to display two button choices and then get filemaker to respond in two different ways depending on button choice, Possible?, can u help?

In version 4 of filemaker you could display a message via AS that would show a field value and a button choice, is that possible with 5 and how is it done. Cheers Coops [This message has been edited by Coops (edited January 09, 2001).]

Excellent!! Just the job, a well thought out way of developing, if only the creator of the solution I have just inherited followed something like 1% of the ideas here I would have save weeks of heartache! ------------------ Cheers Coops

I'm pretty sure you can't do this with just calculations because you would end up with a circular argument, scripting it would work tho' ------------------ Cheers Coops

Hi Yeti If you are using a Mac this will work <shift> <option> 2 will get you the Euro E Irrespective of your OS it is dependent on the font you use. This is OK for all the latest apple system fonts that are part of the standard system installation. I should think that someone would have the bases covered for windose (sp?) ------------------ Cheers Coops

Aye, Aye Capt, I was afraid that was the case, normally I would always favour rellies over reps! The reason for pushing reps was that I am making a game for a small child and wanted to keep it as a single file to avoid it 'breaking'. Ho Hum back to the drawing board. thanks

I have a repeating field in which I want to store a list of randomly selected values from another repeating field. I have the random calculation sussed but when I try to put the GetRepetition calulation in any repetition other than 1 it does not appear?! script step is: Set Field ["repeatingField1" -2, "GetRepetition(repeatingField2;(random calc)"]
