I have been looking at Filemaker 7. I have run in to a snag with the "Perform Find" script step.

All I am trying to do is create a button that will find all the companies that start with a letter.

So I create a script to find the letter "A".

Script steps:

• 
  
• Perform Find [Restore]
  

I specified the find criteria in the script step by creating a find request. Setting that request to:

Action: Find Records

Find Records when: Customer::nameCompany

Criteria: A*

Now, when I run this script I always get no records found, even though the a record that matches this find exists.

Can anyone help me this new method of setting up find in FM 7.

Works for me. Make sure there are no quotes on the find criteria. Check if the layout you are running this find on has the same context (Customer) or is at least related.

No there are no quate.

I still have a problem. Could anyone walk me through this. I have been searching filemaker help and their website. They don't talk about this new script's setup. I need some step by step hand holding.

Any help is very welcomed

Try

-try changing the index language in the field options.
