Save PDF to Field Failed

Hello, 

I am not sure what I am doing wrong but I am trying to take a layout and save it as a PDF to a container field on the same layout. 

I keep getting this error that the "file cannot be found".  If you wouldn't mind taking a look at the structure of the script and letting me know if you see anything wrong?  

Thank you in advance. 

Chris.

Your primary key is "contactUnitCalc" - that worries me. It's better to have primary keys simply ID, which is auto-entered to Get (UUID), a meaningless, unique string.

You do not need Show All records before a Find. It'll always search all records.

ContactswPDF.fmp12You are not specifying a directory, such as Get ( DesktopPath) or Get (TemporaryPath).

You do not need the \ after the ".pdf"

line 9 has quotes around the $var

here's a demo file using one of the starter solutions.
