GetRepetiton doesn't 'Get' anything !

[ChrisE]

I have a strange problem. I have a repeating field in my master db called _mm_codeholder.

I have another repeating field in another db called _dr_codeholder. Both have 12 repeats and

I want to use them to hold a number of codes which will eventually refer to other records in

the db. Trouble is, I don't seem to be able to get a script to copy the 12 instances of _mm_codeholder over to _dr_codeholder. Only the first gets copied.

I am using Set Field, specifying the repetition to be set. That works OK when tested with

data from another test field. I am then using GetRepetiton(_mm_codeholder, n), where n is set in each of 12 script steps to be from 1 to 12.

It just doesn't seem to get those repetitons, just the first one....................

My script would be like:

Set Field [DatResourceKEYED:_dr_codeholder -n, GetRepetiton(_mm_codeholder, n)]

Why no workee ?

What you could do is create a global field in the Master db.

Then have a subscript that stores Repetitions in this global g_codeholder

Set Field g_codeholder [GetRepetition (_dr_codeholder,n)

Then

Set Field [DatResourceKEYED::_dr_codeholder -n, g__codeholder
