Hi,

I'm working on making a script to auto number fields in each row of a portal. Because of the way that we want it to print there are two portals. The first is 1-15 and the second is 16-30. I have been successful in auto numbering the first 1-15 but when I can't get it to go to the second portal to continue numbering.

I've attached a template. I labeled in the code where I am stuck if you go to the script maker. To see what it does click the button and then enter a number higher than 15. It numbers 1-15 beautifully but not anything beyond 15. If anyone has any helpful ideas I would gladly accept them.

Thanks

Is the purpose of this field stricly for labeling the portal rows with a number? If so, then you can use @@ on the portal row to display the record numbers

Is there a reason you don't want to use "@@" to number each portal? I tried it and it works fine.

Ooops, sorry John I didn't see you already answered it.

I didn't know that the @@ function would even do that. I'm pretty new at filemaker and still learning.

Thanks so much for the quick fix.
