Portal / Record Navigation Problem

[jtomb]

I’m a newbie and I am having problems with portal / record navigation.

I have a portal (list) which contains a list of employee’s names. I have a set of nav buttons (first, previous, next, and last) which I want to use to navigate the list portal. I use the selected portal row in the list portal to GTRR in another portal on the same layout which displays an employee record (employee).

I first had the nav buttons moving between records, which was fine until the employee names were sorted and the record number no longer coincided with the name’s position on the portal.

So I then scripted the nav movements using the portal row number / GTRR and all worked well until I ran a “find”. The find does not modify the names list portal, so though the nav buttons continue to work, they do not move between the records in the found set.

Is there a way resolve this problem?

Any help would be much appreciated.
