Controlling and displaying find criteria

[Bpeters]

I would like to be able to display on a layout the find criteria typed into 1 find field whether it was for multiple requests or not. Is there a simple way to access this information in FM or do I have to write a script to go through each request and get the info in that field? If the latter, where can I put the info to display it? Thanks.

If you need to display find criteria on a layout, it is usually best to set up a custom "find" layout using global fields for the user to enter the find requests. Then use a script to enter find mode and transfer the global field data to the appropriate fields, and then perform the find. This way, all of your last find criteria is available in the global fields.

I like that idea. Thank you.
