Vaughan Posted January 9, 2001 Share Posted January 9, 2001 Without flogging a dead horse, repeating fields are not a good design element. As you have discovered, they are very difficult to work with. Instead take advantage of FMP's relational capabilities and use a portal to create and display the "rows" -- each of which is actually a related record but they can be designed to appear and work in a similar way to repeating fields. Only much, much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Posted January 9, 2001 Share Posted January 9, 2001 If you really need to use the repeating fields, check out http://www/databasepros.com and search for repeating. You'll find some techniques for navigating to a specified repetition in a repeating field. It involves using a layout that has the repeating field on it in a specific tab order, and then using Go to Next Field and a counter to get to the repetition you need.
