Hi All - Haven't visitied for a long time.

I am trying to use a global field in an FMP-if statement and can't get it to work. What's up with that? If there is some reason that this can't be done, do you have other suggestions for how to work around? I am collecting screening data for research. At the und of my survey I have a thank you page that I use to invite certain people for follow-up studies, based on their scores. I can do that fine. In addition, I want to be able to turn that invitation text on or off depending on whether the follow-up study is active. So i've made a global field to set the study as active or inactive.

TIA

Is it on the Layout that you have named?

What happens when you display the Field (for testing) with [FMP-Field:myglobal]?

Does it have a value?

What do you mean by "can't get it to work"? What is happening?

How is your [FMP-If] statement structured?

Good Luck.

Hi, bama!

Echo Garry... Plus:

As far as I know, globals should work the same as other fields for web use, but make sure you enter values for globals thru the web or at the server and NOT from your local FMP-client since your globals are not the same as the server globals. How are you assigning the values?
