Help on a Global field!

[mentairia]

Ok I have darn near rewritten this program that was left in my lap 30% done but some where in this program in the 30% that was done is a Global field that is setting all text background color. It says it is set by Color Trim. I followed that to a statement that said Color Trim = Trimcolor number so I went to the trimcolor number but there is no way to enter anything in the global number field. So I am at a loss and since it is one of the last things left to do I could really use some help.

Hi,

Not sure I follow you... but here goes...

Do you know the name of the global field....? i would presume that the global field name is Trimcolor Number.

If you do you could manually reset the global by creating a dummy layout in the file containing the global and putting the global field onto it with alow entry checked in the field format dialog... then you can enter the right number into the field .

This will set the global. you can delete the layout afterwards...

If you want to set the global to the same value all the time... use a script at the beginning of the solution that uses the setfield() command to set the global to the number you want.

Hope helps...
