Insert calculated result

[SharkFin85]

If for example i a field and i don't want it to appear in a layer but i want to use the "Insert Calculated Result" Script to put some data into this field, the field doesn't accept this data from the script....

Do someone know why??

Sorry for my English...

Hi, and welcomd to the Forum.

What is the result of the field itself.

in other words, is it a calculation field, date, text, number, time, etc.

What is the calculation you are trying to insert into that field.

Are there any relationships involved.

It's just a number field (not a calculation field).

The calculation is made by the "Insert Calculated Result" script step and the target is a number field and the calculation=1, the script start with a button from an other layout. It's all simple. The strange thing is that if i put the field in the layout everything is working, but if i delete the field from the layout (but not from the "define database>fields") its not working.

If I'm understanding you correctly, you only want to insert a 1 into a number field? Try using the Set Field Script step instead. The Set Field doesn't require the field to be on a layout.

Hi

use the script step:

Set field[ yourField ; 1 ]

P.S. pardon Lee, where do you came from ?

I didn't see you "On Line" ! ???
