is there any way to find out the criteria behind a Perform Find[Restore] script step?

I am taking over a database filled with things like this and I would like to know...

thanks

The Perform Find script step enters Find mode and finds records that match the find request. You can set up one or more find requests before adding this script step, and then select one for the script, or you can perform a find request before creating the script and use the Restore Find Request option to use the last find request performed.

If you need to find records using a script you have the option to establish any criteria.

In Scripmaker do this:

Enter Find Mode[]

Set Field["field holding requested info", "info"]

Perform Find[]

When the option to Restore find requests is not used, FileMaker Pro performs the find as if the Find button in the status area had been clicked. This makes it possible to create a script that enters Find mode, set, pastes or inserts data into various fields, and then performs a find.

If you print out the scripts, either on paper or to pdf files, then you will be shown what the find criteria are. Same for Sort criteria. An example of what you will see is :

TestFindScript

Perform Find [ Request 1: NumberInput >234; Request 2: NumberInput <10000 ][ Restore find requests ]

Printing out the scripts is probably a good way for you to understand what you are taking over !

RussBaker, thanks!
