Shift/Select Several Repetitions

[Jarvis]

I have a database that graphically tracks completion status of projects.

When you are done with a task you select it's repetition and hit a a delete button. When all of the tasks are complete, grid is empty and the job is done.

This graph could be used to keep track unsold seats in a theater or unreserved rooms in a hotel. It's pretty simple.

Right now you must delete each repetition one at a time.

I would like to be able to select a range of repetitions and delete several at a time.

Is there any kind of shift/select type gizmo to allow me to select more than one repetition at a time?

Thanks for any guidance,

Jarvis

Almost needless to say that I can't endorse the use repeaters, to anyone wearing the skills classification "Beginner" ...you're simply catching a "venereal disease" if you continue fooling around with them before really get your grip on relational designs!!!

But as almost anything can be done in filemaker with spit and polish, could you investigate this:
