April 21, 200322 yr Guys, could you explain to me how I would want to use the above script step? It somehow doesn't make sense to me, and the manual is not very clear about this. Would you mind explaining the "Specify by Number" step, too? Any help greatly appreciated!
April 21, 200322 yr It goes to the record specified by the number contained in a field, within the current found set as it is currently sorted So if the field contains 3 the step will bring you to the third record in the found set The step is not used frequently since there aren't many cases in which it can be useful
April 21, 200322 yr There was a recent example recently where a user wanted to view the record containing the second highest value in a found set. In this case, it was do the find, sort by descending order, then Go To Record 2. I also use it in race systems where, for example, if you are in lap 6 of a 10 lap race for a particular rider and need to copy some info from the first lap, you can store the current record number in a global, Go To the first lap record, copy the info then Go To the record number contained in the global to return you to the lap where you were and paste the info.
