Hi,

Script Steps Reference states that for SetField, the specified fields do not have to be on the current layout. But do they have to be on the current table?

If so, is the best way to copy data from a field in one table to a field in another?

Right now, this is the only way I can get it to work (code abridged):P

Go to Layout [X]

SetVariable [$fieldX]

Goto Layout [Y]

SetField [$fieldX]

Is this the best way?

Thanks.

Set field[ takes two parameters, the recieverfield if needed relational prefixed with delimiter "::" ...the second half is either a similar field reference or a calculation. So your script makes only real sense if the two tables not are relationally tied. Relational ties are not required between global fields. So the answer must be - "hardly ever!"
