November 3, 200619 yr Hi, I have a small script problem I can't quite get to work. I have a layout with 365 fields on it (one for each day of the year) I want to attach the same script to each field so when it is clicked on, it takes the date and then does a find on some other tables. I have been using the script step 'Get(ActiveFieldContents)' but it doesn't work because you have to actually enter the field rather than just click on the script attached to that field. It looks like it can be done by the front page article "Set Fields by Indirection!" but can it be done in FileMaker Developer 7? Or should I just start creating 365 separate scripts : Thanks
November 4, 200619 yr It would be easier to use one script with script parameters. But I'd question this structure (or the interface). There's probably a better way to do this using related records, but how to do it depends on what the interface is supposed to look like. It would seem too busy to have all the days of the year visible on the same layout.
November 4, 200619 yr Author Thanks Heaps : This worked great. The trick of putting the fields in their own portal was the key - it took me a little while to get that part! Cheers Darrel
