EURO: Alt 0128 does not work with Win2000. I need this for a value list. Best regards.

I assume you want to round to 70 for all values [=>61]. Try this Round((duration/increment)+4,-1)*increment. Regards.

Is it possible to select a field entry from a value list and after this ONE selection the field does not allow any new entry. I want to use this selection in a primary key and this selection should not change anymore since this is used in related tables. Would appreciate any advice. Best regards.

Many thanks. I went the easy wayout and created two different layouts. Works fine.

I am trying to arrange fields from with in a script - is this possible. I want to bring different fields to the front and hide others to change the layout. Appreciate any help. Best regards.

I understand, but I am not able to alter the code and incorporate in a loop: GoToRecord [First] SetField [

In a table I have fourteen fields event [x] [date] and numOfDays [x] [number]. The scheduling layout should contain the first record and last record. My idea was to use two global repeating fields globalFirstRecord and globalLast to display these two records in the same layout. I am only able to assign the values in the following way: GoToRecord [First] SetField [

In other products [Access, Paradox, InterBase etc.] all tables are grouped together in 'one' database. When you access these through ODBC you basically have access to all tables. How is this done in FM to have the same effect. Regards. Hans

Many thanks for the help! >>2. I understand what you mean by hierarchical data, but don't understand what you mean by "data-aware tree module." If this data is in filemaker, you can create a relationship within the file between the ID field and the ParentID field; then use a portal to display child info right in filemaker.<< Most often you can edit the trees but they are not "data-aware". You can not link them to a table that has the fields itemID and parentID. I am looking for a tree I can link to a table. Regards.

a) Well a Euro Symbol looks like this

I would appreciate some help on three issues: 1. How do I create the Euro symbol in FM (in Word ctrl+alt+e does the job for me, but this does not work in FM even when I use the same font); 2. Is there any tree type module [freeware, shareware] available for FM to link with hierarchical data. 3. Is there a way to count none empty portal rows. Best regards.

In my case it was a new install. FM was working fine at the beginning. The problem occurred after I started installing all my other software. There must have been some conflict that could be fixed with "REPAIR" from the backup. [i have not figured out which software caused the problem]. Regards.

This is exactly the same problem I had. I tried several things and finally gave up and wanted to reinstall the whole thing. Luckily the backup disk had a function called REPAIR. I run the repair function and did not loose any of my information on the HD - WORKED fine for me. I believe now, that there is a conflict with W2000 when other software packages are installed after FM (I have not figured out which one). Regards.

I guess he wants to separate the data structure from the interface and wants to protect this structure from alteration. Cheers.

I solved the problem by running "Repair" from the Windows 2000 back-up disk. Something went wrong while I was installing another software package. Many thanks for all advice.
