Status of Search?

[Korner]

Hi, I've recently been introduced to FMP 4.1 and am having a problem with configuring a "find" layout.

I have a group of 100 members who each sit on roughly 65 committees. I decided to cast one field with repeating values for the committees, and ideally would like to choose one of these committees from a value list, hit a find button, and go to a new layout that lists the committee's members.

Actually I have managed to accomplish most of this, only I am now unable to display the committee that was searched on in the "Results" layout.

Will the repeating field prevent me from displaying the search criteria, or is their a workaround - such as a script - to display the name of the committee over the members? I've fiddled with the Status() functions but no success yet . . .

Thanks

Use a global field to contain the name of the committee which is the target of the find. Place the global field in the header of the printed report. -bd
