harty Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Hello I have a situation where I have a database made for other people. They have a value list which they have to change once a year. they will always have to do a find for the FIRST value of the value list. Is there a way to automate this? For example this year the first value of the value list is "greystone" and next year the first value might be "rusty" but I would like to know if it is possible to do a find for the first value in a value list. Thanks very much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comment Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Try a script along the lines of: Enter Find Mode [ ] Set Field [ yourField; LeftValues ( ValueListItems ( Get (FileName) ; "yourValueList" ) ; 1 ) ] Perform Find [ ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harty Posted February 25, 2006 Author Share Posted February 25, 2006 Since it is a radio button value list in the field . Is there a way to select or paste in the 1st radio button during find mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comment Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Manually, yes. If you want to automate this - that's exactly what my script does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
