Event Handling...

[RWright]

I'm fairly new to FileMaker and am attempting to have one of my scripts run once a date field is changed. I can't use a standard button, because actions happen on mouse down, I'm looking for an on change style event. It's currently the pull down calender, so basically when you click a date perform this script. Can anyone suggest a solution? Thanks in advance

FileMaker 8 Advanced comes with a free plug-in that allows you to run a script when you exit a changed field. There are several examples on my web site showing how to create logs of field changes using this plug-in. Here is one of those downloads.
