Creating a smallish FMPro tool to do something Access can't (or not easily) I need to combine data from separate records into a repeating field. < Filemaker Techinfo article > ought to help but doesn't cos it refers to ScriptMaker functions in v2.x which are different in v5.0 (what I'm using). Specifically, "Reserialize", "Paste literal" (is this the same as "Insert text"? and the Lookup "DATABASENAME.FM=Copy contents of Index when Trigger matches a new entry in Trigger" (Index and Trigger being fields in the current database which is DATABASENAME.FM).

Why do you need your data in a repeating field ?

Good question - it seemed like a good idea at the time! More seriously, it looked like a solution to the way the data is structured in the Access database it's coming from. I think I need to take a few steps back and go forward the relational way.
