Duplicating Records

When you duplicate a record, is there a way to tell Filemaker not to duplicate a few fields? We have credit card information in our database and we do not want that duplicated over to the next record.

yes.

in the field options set "Auto Enter" field to a default value you like.

This way when you duplicate a record the field content will be replaced with the default value.

There is also another option: if you duplicate the record with a script you may clear some fields after duplication with "SetField" script steps.
