Is it possible to script changes to a layout?

[PRP407]

I would like to be able to script having an item in a layout move forward or backward in the layout (e.g. a button or field becomes visible or is hidden). Is it possible to script this?

Absolutely -

You can do this with the portal visibility trick, in that you create a relationship that you can script the true/false result for and the button/field becomes visible or invisible.

If you visit http://www.databasepros.com/resources.html and search for visibility you will see several examples you can download and examine.

Now, where in Florida are you? Reason I ask is because the Central Florida FMPug ( based in Orlando) meets on the 24th. Come along to register to win a copy of FileMaker Develoepr 7. visit us at www.fmpug.com/rsvp.html
