droid Posted June 15, 2020 Posted June 15, 2020 I've been saving various files - mostly pdfs - in FM container fields, for years. A script triggered by clicking in the field allowed the field to be exported for viewing. Recently I upgraded to FM18, and now when I click in the field, I'm told "container fields cannot be exported"! Is there a new way that I should be doing this? Thanks.
Wim Decorte Posted June 15, 2020 Posted June 15, 2020 No, nothing has changed. Is that particular container field set up for interactivity on that layout?
droid Posted June 15, 2020 Author Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) Geez, fm19 is now out? I guess that’s why I managed to buy 18 cheap! Thanks Wim. That container field is visible and clickable on the layout. The script is launched, giving options to export or delete the contents. But choosing “export” Produces the error message. if I get a chance later in the day, I’ll post the script. But again, nothing has been changed from the versions that worked before.

droid Posted June 15, 2020 Author Posted June 15, 2020 Wim, I've wasted your time. It was a bogus error message. The problem was that the pdf that was being referenced, had gone missing! Problem solved.
