Can the Auto-Enter function be temporarily shut off?

Hi,

I have a database in FM7 that has a lot of fields with default values auto-entered.

When an existing record is duplicated, these default vales are entered, not the values from the record that I'm duplicating.

Is there a way to set auto-enter off in a script so that a record can be duplicated 100%?

Is there another approach to this problem?

thanks!

Add a global field to your database called "auto enter state" or something. Use the value 1 to represent on and 0 or empty to represent off. Then just change all your auto enters to be:

If( table::autoenterstate ; Your current field contents here )

Then you can control whether they are on or off by changing that one field.
