Search - change layout - omit newbie question

[Migs_at_fmforums]

Friends:

I search for some records, find five and select one (by clicking on it), then I change my layout to a detail one for editing that record. The question is: How do I omit the other 4 records in the selection so that when I print, via a button, the others wont print as well?

Thanks amigos!

In the Go To Related Records script step, you can choose to show Only Related Record, or all Related Records.

Hi Lee, thanks for answering. I have no related table. Its a really simple database of my software registrations. When I find the record I need, I switch to the more detailed layout, but there are usually some more as part of the selection. I want to omit those.

Thanks again,

Without a relatioshp, you can create a button with a script that basically does:

Show All

Omit

Show only Omitted

Go to Layout Detail

and then you could

add a Print Current Record step if you wanted also.

Hi Lee:

You are a genius! I had to tweak it a bit but it worked fine and added a very useful script to a button that I needed to implement!

I remain MOST grateful!
