I've posted this question earlyer in another area, but without helpfull response.

A simple button with the Search & Replace command does not work anylonger and the S&R window does not appear when the DB is compiled with Developer. It's strange, it does not mather if I call the script step S&R directly or include it into a script. In both cases the error <the previous script step "< unknown>" could not be completed ... comes up. The OS is XP, FM v6, Developer v5.5 and full acces to the user is enabled and when starting the S&R script, the current script is exited. Any idea on how to solve this is highly appreciated.

Thanks,

John

Hi CommiC,

If I'm understanding your post (I didn't see the other one, but if it is really a double post, Do Not Double Post, just go back and Post in the forum that you do not understand, or that you need additional information).

If it is Find/Search under Menu - Edit - Find/Replace, it was a new feature in Version 6.

To accomplish this in earlier versions, you will have to do a workaround. Take a look at this file to see an example:

You need Developer 6.0.

Thanks
