yes, but still not grasping "portals". Let me re-read and see if it sinks in this time. I'll be back in touch. Thanks.

I've tried to understand what a "portal" is... and cannot. All I can do is possibly compare to the previous database systems I've used... Alpha Five and Acess. Is a portal a range or index? If this is the case, then "no" I do not have a portal attached to the field "accounts". Thanks.

Lee, I must be missing something... Here's what I'm trying to do.... Type in the "rep" field the rep's name for finding.... when this is done I need the "account" field to be alphabetical order.... with all accounts listed with the rep find. Lee, again thanks for your help. Reed

Can anyone tell me if I can place ascending or descending order parameters in a field for sorting without using the cmd-s key stroke for sorting? In other words the field account will always be sorted ascending. Thank you.

Thank you... After some reviewing... Alpha 5. Here's what I found.... an index is attached to accounts with direction as ascending... this is in the set up of the database. Should I be looking into something like this for database set up? Thank you.

Not sure if asking this correctly... New to FM, previous user of Alpha 5(PC). When I use "find" feature; this works for the field I created called "rep", but I wish for when I find the "rep" name than the "account" field be sorted automatically-alphabetically. In order to do this I must use the cmd-s keystroke to alphabetically sort. With A5 my rep finds were always sorted alphabetically. Any help here? Thanks
