Can Scriptmaker open my Customer ID value list , choose the selection I want and add that selection to a field?

Hi

Set field[yourTable::yourField; GetValue("CustomerIdValueList"; yourChoosedNumber)]

didn't work ?

Thanks, Ray. Haven't tried that yet, but it looks to be right

there is no function "getValue" that i'm aware of. Did you mean GetNextSerialValue

You probably looked for it in the list of Get Functions, I do that too. This one is in the list of Functions.

However, notice the difference in how it looks:

[color:blue]GetValue(listOfValues;valueNumber)

whereas, the Get Functions look like this.

[color:blue]Get ( CurrentDate )

HTH

Guess I must be brain dead today, but when I list "all Functions by name" in the specify calculation window I don't find GetValue in the list.

Are you sure you are using version 8?

Are you sure you're using FileMaker 8?

Yeah, 8.02

Ahhh, I was was in my Developer 7 and not Filemaker 8. Sorry for the confusion

If you wish to have something that works in both FM7 and FM8, you can find or build a custom function (using Developer 7) that accomplishes the same thing.
