Hi,

I would like to create a script that upon opening the application the following occurs...

1) If the date from a "Est. Completion Date Field" is more than 60 days old, then the field named "Project Status" is changed to read "outstanding".

I'm new to FMP so any help would be great... trying my best to learn on the job.

Cheers,

Dan :

Hi

your "open" ( a [color:red]script that runs automatically ** when you open your DB ) script must contain:

Show All Records

Go to Record/Request/Page [First]

Loop

Set Field [Project Status;Case(

Get ( CurrentDate ) > Est. Completion Date Field + 60 ;"outstanding";

Project Status

)]

Go to Record/Request/Page [Next; Exit after last]

End Loop

[color:red]** File >> File Options... >> Open/Close >> Perform Script ---> Open
