Is there any way to use a script parameter to specify the target field of a script step?

Thanks

Absolutely! Just make your script parameter a calculation based on whatever logic is required to determine the target field.

In actuality the script parameter is the target field. Where I get stuck is that it seems all script steps require that target field is statically assigned when the script is put together.

The target field can be dynamically assigned in a script but not a calculation. What is it exactly you'd like to accomplish? Do you have an example file?

Misread question, corrected my response

If it's getting the value is it the calc:

GetField ( Quote ( Get ( ScriptParameter ) ))

If it's getting the cursor into the correct field:

Go to Field [  ] [ Select/perform ] 

Go to Next Field 

Loop 

Exit Loop If [ Get ( ActiveFieldName ) = Get ( ScriptParameter ) ] Go to Next Field 

End Loop

Obviously requirering a layout containing the fieldname!!!

--sd

Or hardcode it:

If [ get(scriptparameter) = "First Name" ]

Set Field [ First Name ; ]

Else If [ get(scriptparameter) = "Last Name" ]

Set Field [ Last Name ; ]

Else If [ get(scriptparameter) = "Address" ]

Set Field [ Address ; ]
