I don't know if the solution is scripting, but after performing a find that generates a list of records on a different layout, I would like to be able to move to a specific record back in the original layout by mouse clicking on that specific record on the list. Help!

Thanks,

Scott

you can either select all the fields in your list view layout OR draw a rectangle that covers them and make it transparent.

Either way, once you have decided go to the format menu and choose button. Choose the Go To Layout option and specify the layout you wish to change to.

Hi Scott,

Actually, you don't even need a script to do what you want. simply define an object (any layout object will do) as a button and attach it to the 'Go to Layout' command directly. When you click on it, you will be simultaneously selecting the record it appears in and going to the designated layout to view that record.

The object you define as a button can be a conventional labelled button - or, if you prefer, it can be given transparent line and fill attributes and sized to take up the whole record row in list view. Then clicking anywhere on a record will 'select' that record and present it in the form layout.
