Hi,

I'm trying to automate the printing of job report by employees. Here is a description of what I have and what I have to do:

I have a list of employees that are assign job. A job can be ongoing, done or cancelled, each job have a serial number. I have a report layout that shows (once you have done a Find by employees and ongoing) of the job for each employees.

What I would like is a script that go through all the employee list and print out the report of ongoing job. Each employees need his on print out without seeing the job of other employees.

I've been fiddling with things, but I can't seem to figure out the Set fields script with Perform and I'm also wondering how can the script use all the data from the employees list.

Thank you

Here is a general method for creating scripts: first work out how to do it "by hand" yourself. Write down the steps of the process. That'll pretty much be your script.

I agreed and I've done that, I just don't seem to figured out the tool I need to use. Mind you I know this is not a simple script and I'm new to File Maker pro (only started building layout 3 weeks ago), so some of the concept are still hard for me to understand. I'm sure I'll figured it out.
