How via a script command do you set the current layout to only print the current record or print records being browsed? It doesn't look like Page Setup saves this choice so maybe this cannot be restored via a script??

You DO need to put the 'Page Setup' step in your script for Filemaker to remember the settings for "Print records being browsed" and "Print Current Record", even though the actual parameter is in the print dialog (on a Mac...)

Storing the actual choice is a bit primitive:

First perform a manual print command and set the appropriate option

Then edit the corresponding script. On exiting the script edittor there are two things that can happen... (Tension mounts....)

1. If the 'page setup' script step was already in the script before you started editing, Filemaker will ask if you want to Keep or Replace the current page setup. Select 'replace' and voila, the setting is stored.

2. If you just inserted the 'page setup' script step Filemaker won't ask you anything and just store the setting.

Hope this helps,

regards,

Ernst.
