I have an application with 12 different "full screen" diagrams inserted into 12 repetitions of a container field. My initial implementation has the user accessing them individually using 12 different layouts.

I would like for the user to be able to step forward and backward through the diagrams from a single layout.

Would setting up a separate display field be a reasonable approach and then use a calculated Replace Field Contents? I would greatly appreciate a recommendation for an approach to take on this -- or possibly point out a suitable sample file.

Thanks in advance.

You could use a calculation field with the result set to Container =

GetRepetition ( Diagrams ; n )

where n is a number field. Use buttons to step n up or down.

Thanks for the recommendation.

Using a CurrentPage calculated container field along with an PageIndex number field in the table containing the diagrams, my Next and Previous buttons step the Index by one and no script is required. That's the simplicity I was looking for.
