Does anyone know how to get the field name of a field defined as a button after clicking the button?

Feel free to move this topic to a different forum. I couldn't figure out where exactly to post it.

In Layout Mode, you should be able to control-click (not sure what the equivelant is in Windows, but right-click may work too) on the field. This brings up a pop-up menu where you can select "Specify Field" to change the field.

Why don't you specify it as a Script Parameter ? It seems you cannot do this dynamically, e.g. using something like Get (ActiveFieldName) because the field is not active when clicked on, so you'll have to hard-code it.

HTH,

Yup, I see how that would work. But, what if the field/button is already in a portal showing multiple records with multiple fields in the portal?
