June 16, 200817 yr Newbies We currently run a stable FM9 database with about 7 clients. We have several simple modifications that we wish to implement. We are releatively technical and can be considered 'power users' so we'll make your job easy. We seek to establish a relationship with a developer that we can remotely with (by phone or remote connection). We'd like to pay per feature. Some examples of modules we need: 1.Popup list of relevant street names when a certain zip code is entered. We have the zip data and will do the data entry. 2. A script that will allow multiple records to be loaded in new windows. We'd specify the records' serial number in a dialog box push a button which would call the script to load each record in a new window. Please reply with availability and rates.
June 17, 200817 yr 1. I addressed this in your other thread. 2. You can use a global field for the search entry of serial number in the dialog box. Create a relationship from the global field to the ID field. This is over simplifying it but the the script could be something like such. Show Custom Dialog ["Entry"; "Please Enter ID to search"; gEntry] If [ Get ( LastMessageChoice ) = 1 and not IsEmpty ( NewRelationship::ID )] Go to Related Record [show only related records; from table: NewRelationship; Using Layout:"YourLayout"; New Window ] Else If [ Get ( LastMessageChoice ) = 1 ] Show Custom Dialog ["No Record"; "There are no records with that ID"] End If
June 17, 200817 yr I can do that. I do not see an email contact for you on the post. Send me an email at [email protected] and I can get back to you with particulars. Regards Dave McQueen
June 17, 200817 yr When there isn't an Email given, you can use a Private Topic. Thanks for that Lee. For certain things that would be great. I had not thought of using it. My inclination if it is business is to take it off list. Maybe I am old fashioned, but it seems more appropriate. I guess the exception is if you want your own email address masked. But that is not an issue to me. As I am working for myself, I am not affecting anyone else as in exposing my employer's email address to the world.
June 17, 200817 yr My inclination if it is business is to take it off list. Maybe I am old fashioned, but it seems more appropriate. And I agree, David, and Lee probably does as well; that business should be discussed off forum. But I frequently exchange information within Private Messages to allow taking it off list to begin with - without publishing that information in the public forum. Private messages are great for connections with others and keeping business to oneself. LaRetta
