Hi guys,

I have a quotations database that has a portal to list the line items in (this way I keep a track of everything by accessing the line items database from invoicing, purchases, returns, etc - all writing to the same record)

Now, if I make a quotation and then I want to make a revision version of the quotation, I want to be able to make a duplicate of a portal row so that I do not change the original record but a new one.

Now that Filemaker 7 is all in one file, I cannot do an external script to say duplicate record.

What is the new answer to this problem?

I want to put a button on a portal row and by clicking it copy the related record.

Or

If I have TWO portals - one with the new quote line list, the other with the old - can I script to create new record in the new quote line list and then do a repeated "set field" script between the two different portals?

thanks

I would think it wouldn't be much different than before. Your button would Go to Related Record [show only related; relationship; line items table], Duplicate Record/Request, Go to Layout [original].
