Wasn't sure where to post this, so I'm putting it here in the Searching & finding section... Aren't you lucky? ;-)

I have 4 files- OrderItems, Orders, Customers, and Catalog. I need to be able to print the current order I'm working on. for example, I have order ID 12 up on my screen which consists of a portal from orderItems to Orders (I'm in Orders), with the catalog in a portal next to it. I click on the portal rows to add items to the order. now I want to hit a button to print just the order portal. I can't seem to figure that part out.

any ideas?

thanks!

I assume that you want to print from the related OrderItems file. The quickest way to get to the OrderItems file with the correct records found is to use the script step Go To Related Record [show]. Use this in a script in your Order file like this:

Go To Related Record [show]

Perform Script [External, OrderItems:PrintOrder]

where PrintOrder is a script in the OrderItems file that performs the actual printing of the order.
