mz123 Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 I'm not sure what you mean by a text container field.... : to get the first 20 words from a text field would be: LeftWords( Field ; 20 ) I hope that's what you're looking for.. if not could you give more details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbies Fab Posted June 14, 2006 Author Newbies Share Posted June 14, 2006 Thank you for your answer. What I am looking for is a calculation which would enable me to display only the first 20 to 30 words of a text field (from a Filemaker database) on a listing.lasso page (created from a lasso search page). I'll try your suggestion! thank you again fab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
