Hi,

I'm a FMP for Mac 4.0 user. I've been trying for the longest time to figure out how to set up my database to search all fields for a text string I input and return all records that have a match. I've tried both scripting and the use of a relationship/portal, and I'm just not getting anywhere. I would guess that this is a fairly routine type of exercise for someone a little more familiar with the application. Can someone tell me if scripting is the way to approach this problem? or is setting up some kind of relational DB / portal the way to go? Perhaps some combination of the two? I would be most appreciative of any advice.

Thanks

Make a calculation field in the db that joins up all the text field you want to search on, then perform the search on the new field.

Thanks, Vaughan. That did the trick.
