New Record from Portal Row

[grumbachr]

I have a portal that is showing me the related records that I have requested from specific table/s. Each portal row shows me three things, a User_Name, Object_ID, and Object_Description.

I need to be able to create a new record in a different table based on the Object_ID or the portal row that is selected.

I've tried a few things with the Get(PortalRowNumber) function.

Like using the row number to fill in the contents field that show the Object_ID of the row selected, but either i don't know how to get that to happen or it doesn't work.

I am not sure if I'm even going down the right path with that Get function.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Put a button in the first portal row attached to a script

Set Field [tableA::gID, rel::Object_ID]

That is, set a global in the current table with the related Object_ID when you click the button. Then continue the script to go to a layout associated the desired TO, create a new record, and set it with the global from tableA.
