Save finds

[chris_brown]

Hello! please could someone tell me if it is possible to save a find to a specific form so that when a button is pressed and the report is opened then all the records in the database dont show only the records in the find.

Thanks for any help.

I'm not sure I understand. You want to automatically perform a certain find and then create a report?

Finds are not specific to forms. They are specific to fields regardless of the layout. Your find can be performed manually and then a script can just have Perfrom Find [Restore]. Or add this step to your report navigation script. If you want the found records to NOT show on your report, you will have to use the Omit step in your find script.

What is a "form"... is it simply another name for "layout"?

Yea. Those more familiar with Access call them forms
