I'm pretty new at this . . . but

it seems so easy to create a button in Table A that goes to a related record in Table B, but how do I specify a particular layout in Table B?

Thanks for any help you can give me,

Julie

Make the button run a little script containing the go to related record script step. Then add the go to layout step right after.

Just to clarify a little. The script in "Table A"(in FM "File A"):

Go to Related Record [show] <-- use "show" to show only the related records

Perform Script [External, "Table B"]

The script in "Table B" ("File B") should contain:

Go to Layout [Layout Name]

If you put the Go to Layout in the script in Table A, it refers to a layout in Table A. I'm guessing what you wanted is to isolate realted records in Table B and then go there to a specific layout to view them.
