first record found repeated

[CARL ROOT]

I just got back a repaired file from filemaker, but find I have to reconstruct a script. The number of records in the portal that match the common field are correct, but only the first record found is shown, then repeated.

I also need a blank record at the end.

It sounds like the field in the portal is not using the same relationship that the portal is set for. Check that everything in the portal is using the portals relationship, or change the portal's relationship to match that of the fields, whichever you find is appropriate.

THANKS. That was it.

Now everything looks OK ..... except the records in the portal are in ascending order rather than descending (date field). Should be simple, but I can't find a place to check it within the portal.

You can choose the portal's rows ordering at the building relation time, simply by determining, in the appropriate box (sort related recs.) in which order the portal will be set.
