Replace found set question

[jcc31]

My Filemaker Pro 5 script has a "Replace Found Set" option. I would like to use this same method in Filemaker Pro 7. What is the equivalent script from FM5 to FM7?

Perhaps you're thinking of the Replace Field Contents[] script step?

Well what I want to do is this.

I have three fields. Name, Address, and location.

I would like to do a find with one field. That part is easy. But now I would like to do a find with a combination of fields. Before I would use the "Replace found set" in my script.

Will Replace field contents work?

Sounds like you are referring to a New Request, Constrain Found Set or Extend Found Set features. When you do the search with a combination of fields, is it an AND or OR find? An AND find would have the find criteria for the three fields on a single request while a n OR find would be on different requests. Or, maybe you are referring to storing find criteria in a script so you can search on the same criteria every time? It has changed in FileMaker 7. Please clarify.

Yeah I'll try the OR condition.
