SYSTEM:: Is this common?

I've encountered a legacy solution which uses calculations that look up fields from other files and the calc uses SYSTEM::fieldName. I'm not familiar with such a function.

Can anyone elaborate?

The solution is hosted via FMP 6 server, but getting ready for version 8.

TIA,

What function? "relationship::fieldname" is general syntax for referring to a related field. "SYSTEM" must be the name of the relationship.

Yes, I see now, and have found the relationship named "SYSTEM."

It's a reference and not a function.

Thanks again for the prompt reply and answer.
