I'm trying to crate a script that will let me update the status in my task list from defer to open once the start date is passed

Currently the script I have is:

If[Tasks::Start Date ≥ Get ( CurrentDate ) and Tasks::Priority = "Defer"]

Set Field [Tasks::Priority = "Open"]

End If

I'm sure it is something simple I'm missing, but I can't figure it out.

Thanks for any help,

Matt

Shouldn't the inequality sign be reversed?

BTW, an unstored calculation field could do this, without the need for a script.

Ok, changing the inequality sign made it work if I had the record selected. How can I have it go through all the records that are on the screen?

Thanks,

Matt

See the second example in Help > Creating scripts to automate tasks > ScriptMaker examples > Loop structure example.

Or check out the Replace Field Contents[] script step.

Got it working. Thanks a lot!
