I have 4 files that contain a yearly archive of stories. Each has title, author, date, and page number. these are very simple files. I was planning to share the files over the web and allow users to search the files for references in the stories. say for a particular company.

the question is: can filemaker change the color of the words it finds? or highlight the words it finds in the text? for example: find the word string: "real estate" list every record the contains "real estate" and color or highlight "real estate". The text can have a word count up to 1000-2000 words which can make the result difficult to locate in the field.

are there any examples that anyone might be able to share?

Thanks for all the help.

Dan.

I remember two sample files for high lighting found text:

  • Author

thanks

  • Author

These are good, but they do not work if you use IPW.
