Get (Portal Row Number) copy field not working

[grumbachr]

I have a script that works in FM 8 but not FM 7

My portal is two portals the fisrt showing rows 1-3 the second showing 4-6. There is only one field in each row showing a name. Here are the first to steps.

Go to Portal Row [select; Get (PortalRowNumber)]

Copy [select; User::Name]

In FM 7 if my button is in rows 4-6 it gets the right portal row number for the first step but, then then it goes to the first portal row to makes the copy step. if the portal row i click on is rows 1-3 it works fine.

Any suggestions for a work around or a fix am i missing a step in 7?

Any info is greatly appreciated.

If a button resides in a portalrow is there no need for a Go to Portalrow[ as well!!

....but you ought not use "Copy" at all, but instead Set Variable if on FM8 or if you're on FM7 use a recursion to make the script itself pickup the value as Script Parameter ...it's bad developement practice to use Copy/Paste since they tampers with the user's clipboard!
