I have created a company "to do list" with fields for customers and the employee whom is responsible. I'd like to create a drop down menu and button to sort the records by employee, so the individuals can view their assignments. I know how to do this with the find feature, but wondered if there is a way to accomplish this witha script and global field with a drop down menu?

Thanks

There are several ways to approach this. The way I've done this in systems I've developed is to create a portal on the Employee's form view layout that shows the to do's that have them as the "assigned to". That is, build a relationship from your Employee table to the To Do table matching the assigned to field.

Another way is to display a filtered portal of all to do's and as the user chooses an employee, the portal filters to show only those employee's to dos.

I hope that you are storing EmployeeIDs in your To Do table, and not employee names. It's the IDs that you should be matching in your relationships.
