strange portal behavior

[Sergeant Ron]

I notice this in FM8 as well in FM7. Here is the situation. I have one database that had a portal when I select an entry in the portal that line turns black when i click on it (which seems normal because I am selecting it). However in another database when I click on a portal in that database all of the records in the portal are highlighted the color of my background and other portals on the layout are highlighted as well. Any idea what can be causing this? Thanks Ron.

I think in your second database, the portal is transparent.

I acutally I figured out that making the field behavior unable to enter in browse or find mode fixed the problem. Since I have no need to update portal records its a non issue now. Thanks, Ron.
