Conditional Layout (or button)?

[acsulliv]

In my Master List, there are various records that are "leaders". I have a "leader" layout that provides additional info on leaders, but that is only relevant for those records that are "leaders". How can I make this layout available ONLY to those records that are "leaders". I want to be able to browse through this layout and see only "leader" records. I know I can do a find, but that filters records for both my "leader" layout and my "master list" layout. I also considered making the leader layout unavailable in the menu, and having a go-to button available on ONLY those records that are leaders. Is this possible? Can you have a button that appears on a record conditionally? Thanks.

Yes, you can have a conditional button. Search the forum for Portal Invisibility to see how to do this. See also databasepros.com

and look at the Visibility section.

If you are using FM7, you could also display leaders in a pop up window using GTRR in new window, show only related records. This will prevent disruption of the found set in the main window.

HTH,
