Help! Stuck in a loop & can't get out...

[RDecker]

Hope someone is on at the moment (or soon)...

I've done something dumb and can't get out of a validation loop. I have a zip code field defined as a required value. In experimenting with some other matters I created a portal that allows the creation of records in that file--but I didn't put in a zip field--nor had I yet added a delete row button. Now I have a record that I can't complete (no zip field) and can't revert or delete.

I *do* have another window open for the same file, so I can access ScriptMaker. Is there any way out of this other than pulling the plug?

Any help urgently appreciated. I'm leaving it open for now...

Whew! Found an out. While the cursor is in the portal row, select Revert Record from Records menu.

I've read of people getting in this predicament, but couldn't remember a solution. Only wasted a half hour trying to salvage it

Oh well, a lesson learned...
