Hi everyone,

I am new to filemaker and this forum.

anyways, here is my question: I have a drop down menu, I wnat to open a new window by clicking/choosing any tiem of my drop down menu

one new window for each item

I know there is a script called New Window but do not know how to specify for the script to run when i choose anitme of my menu

in the new window I want to have fields and that I know how to do

basically it is an inventory, the first drop down menu is a Class of reagents and then by choosing each class you open a new window and you have subclass reagents and other stuff

appreicate it a lot if anyoen could please help ame and give me useful hints and clear ones as i said i am new

Thanks a lot

Before you implement this, do some testing in Windows OS to see how FMP handles multiple windows.

IMHO you'll create a user interface nightmare with all these windows.

You san do what you want with an event triggering plugin. Search for EventScript.
