Portal to Display Certain Records

[wmugrad28]

Hello,

I have a number of uses for putting two portals on one layout. One simple example is for a recipe database. A recipe has many ingredients. On the recipe layout, I would like to show the first ten ingredients in the left portal and the second ten ingredients in the right portal. There is no particular order to the ingredients. For example, if there were eight ingredients they would only show in the left portal, but if there were 15 ingredients then ten would be in the left and five in the right

Is there a way to do this without a script? I currently have two portals with ten rows each from two table occurances (both the same table) called ingredients_one and ingredients_two, but I'm not sure what to do next.

Use two portals defined from the same TO. In the portal definition, you can set the start and end range of related records to show. The second portal should start at 11.
