I have a pop-up list field and a portal. I would like to make each new record in the portal contain the information selected in the pop-up list. I tried using a global field, but this interfered with other areas of the database. By dropping the pop-up list in the portal, I can get the info to show in the first portal row, but no subsequent portal rows. Any ideas how to get this to work? Would like to avoid scripts if possible.

Thank You.

Sounds like you need a relationship between the pop-up list field and the same field in your portal DB. Does the portal link to a second FM file or the same one?

If you set the relationship to allow creation of related records, then when you click in the bottom blank row and enter data a record is automatically created. If you have the portal field formatted to use a valuelist, then you should be able to use the popup to enter the data.
