Hi there,

I wonder if there is any solution to achieve the following goal that is, in

fact, not really too complex:

Using the script command "Go to related record" (I hope this is an exact translation from the German "Gehe zu Bezugsdatensatz"!), one can display the related table either in the same window or in a new one; but not in an already open window.

As I often need to actualize the data in an already open window, it is a rather unsatisfying solution to always close and reopen this window.

Does anyone know an ingenious possibility?

Best regards,

Bernhard

You could create script that goes to the window, go to correct layout, enter find mode ( no pause ), set field ( get ( scriptparameter ) ) to recordID, perform find. Then call this script passing the recordID.

Sure, that's a possible solution. Yet it appears to me that it would be much faster using one command than running that search-script everytime... (and I need this function really often, so performance IS important)

aha. it appears to me that multi-window-handling is still to be improved by filemaker inc...
