Hi,

I want to pull multiple repetitions from several repeating fields and put them into new tables/files that will be more conducive to relational DB design.

I want to take each repetition along with the UserID, for the field and put them into a new table...

So I'm going from this repeating field table layout:

ID RepeatingFieldValues

10 Value1 Value2 Value3 Value4

20 Value5 Value8 Value1

30 Value3

To something that should look like this:

ID Value

10 Value1

10 Value2

10 Value3

10 Value4

20 Value5

20 Value8

20 Value1

etc.

I hope this makes sense. Thanks for any help!

When you import the records into the new file, you will have the option of separating the repeating field into different records. It's a dialog box that pops up automatically.

Don'cha jus' love it when they make it easy?

I have only one other question that I'll pose in another thread. Then it's goodbye FileMaker!
