JRStudent Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I am a total newcomer to FileMaker... I have a layout and would like to add a portal so that I can add records to another table. So I walk through the steps to add the portal, but then when I go to browse mode, I can't enter any data into the portal area. I can change the tab order to include the portal fields, but in browse mode the tab never goes there. I must be missing something! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbies MGHS Posted May 17, 2007 Newbies Share Posted May 17, 2007 Have you enabled "create records via this relationship", in your ERD. Until you change this setting you will only be able to view records in the other table via the portal, not add any Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Søren Dyhr Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 in your ERD Carefull here, the relational graph is not a ERD!! It deals with table occurances, not tables... http://www.digfm.org/ref/FM7_key_concepts.pdf --sd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
