Help on Scripting a find......

I'm new to FM (and using Ver 6). I have a field called "status" and want to make a script to search for the records which contain "hold" and "testing" and "new". What is the best to go about this? Thanks

How many optional values are there for status? If there is only one or two more than you mentioned, then it would be most efficient to search and omit a single or multiple requests, i.e.

Enter Find Mode[]

Set Field ["status", "option1" ]

Omit Record

Duplicate Record/Request

Set Field ["status", "option2" ]

Perform Find[]

where optionX is any additional possible value.

Otherwise, multiple requests will work:

Enter Find Mode[]

Set Field [ "status", "hold" ]

New Record/Request

Set Field [ "status", "testing" ]

New Record/Request

Set Field [ "status", "new" ]

Perform Find[]
