Auto-enter in Repeating Field

Featured Replies

Hello,

Someone could tell me how to auto-enter data in all fields of a Repetition Field ?

Thank you

Why are you using repeating fields? FMP7 is a relational database making the use of repeating fields unnecessary for the majority of the time. You will be much better off using a related table and a portal to that table.

RalphL, You are right ! It's a good idea. I'll do that way.

But, anyway, do you know if it is possible to auto-enter on repeating fields ? (just curiosity ...)

Thanks again

Yes, but you probably won't ever need it. If you do, look for some of Ugo's sample files that do it and prepare for some major brain strain. wink.gif

... "Ugo's sample files" ? What this mean, please ?

Do a search for the username Ugo Di Luca and 'auto-enter' or similar key words.

Thanks Queue.

The first post related to topic was from Ernst, while mines were only adaptations of the concept for some other derived uses.

But surely doing a search in Sample Forum for "Repeating field" would also help find others unuseful links. tongue.gif
