You can do it with the following script structure: Enter Find Mode (no restore and pause) Copy (select field you want to copy) Perform Find (no restore) The criteria that the user entered is now in your clipboard and you can store it numerous ways (ie go to another file, create record, paste value) Note: To make this work you will have to assign the script to a button in your interface so that the user uses the script and not a FMP search.

Are you trying to update a field in your master file for the current found set or are you trying to update the value of a field for all of the related records (portal) for one particular record in your master file?

I have a client with the following: FMPS 5.5 FMP 6.0v4 OSX (Panther) 23 users This is very strange. All reports in the system print perfectly for all users except for one person. She can print from all apps and even other FMP files (files not part of the above system) but not reports within the system. I've reinstalled FMP, tried other printers, downloaded latest os patches and am now out of ideas. I have also found that if she selects "Preview" from the print dialog box and then selects print from Preview it prints fine. I'm assuming this works since FMP lets go and Preview takes over. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
