I have 2 text fields (first Name)(second Name) i am using the <> and <> script to show that persons name in another area of the layout. i would like to see names and have it appear with 1 single space in-between them both. How do i accomplish this? for example: (my current format) Jerrad_________________Mills (the '_' represents space) (what i would like to see) Jerrad Mills Thanks again, Jerrad

Thanks for the advice Lee. I'm not much of a power user when it comes to FMP, so out of the box is sophisticated enough for me! Thanks. jerrad

i am using one of the default templates that comes with FMP. i am using Version 10. Your link worked like a charm. Thanks so much! Wish i would have asked a month ago.

How do i 'turn off' the function for fields to automatically increase in size based on the width of the FileMaker Program? In the layout mode a field looks to be normal, but when i am in browse mode, they expand depending on maximizing the Filemaker Pro window or created a wider windowed version of the program. Please help cause its driving me crazy!

Thanks, Even though i am not sure i followed your instructions exactly, i think i got it to work. Thanks again! jerrad

i am using version 10.0 Advanced.

I'd like to start off by saying thank you for your help so far. I hate to be a bother, so at anytime, if my questions are too simple/out there, do not hesitate to tell me to hit the books again. --I understand setting up the 3 different tables. Done that. --I understand how to setup a relationship between the them. Done that. --As far as relating the record to its parent record, how do I relate it to the parent company?

I'm getting reacquainted with FMP v10. I am attempting to create a field that results a certain answer based on a previous choice made by a user. I have a locations (X, Y, Z) for Company A, locations (U, V, W)for Company B, and locations (R, S, T) for Company C. If the Location field is the first field the user would choose from a predefined dropdown list (R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z) I would like the corresponding company Name (A, B or C) to then populate the box next to it. How would I accomplish that? By using a script?

I am trying to subtract 1 year from a field that already has a date within it into a new field i.e 1/1/2001 shows in 1 filed i would need the next field to show 1/1/2000 How can i do this? Thanks, Jerrad
