phunkidude Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 I have a layout with two tabs. I was wondering if it is possible to have a form view layout on one tab and then a list view layout on the other tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_vodka Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 No but you can have a form view and a portal for the second tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phunkidude Posted June 24, 2008 Author Share Posted June 24, 2008 That's what I ended up doing but the portal does not show all the records. Maybe I created the relationship incorrectly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Emery Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 I'm dealing with the same challenge. Is there a way to show all records in a portal, rather than just the one related to the current record?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaRetta Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 To show all records, create a relationship based upon the last join option (X) the cartesian product. Then place a portal based upon that relationship on your layout. The fields you use in the join don't matter (and don't have to match nor have data in the field) except you can't use globals, containers or unstored calculations.

Darren Emery Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 Thanks so much! Being a newbie - didn't follow exactly what you were telling me to do, but the (x) factor seemed to work! BTW - Cartesian? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaRetta Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 cartesian . However, if you search FM Help for cartesian, you won't find it. FM says little about it. If you search for 'About relationships using comparative operators' it shows the X and says all values in left match all values in right. But I can't find any place which goes into specifics about the match field stipulations of non-global, not container etc. I'm unsure if I ever read it in Help or just found out on forums.

Newbies genenyc Posted November 9, 2010 Newbies Share Posted November 9, 2010 I too would like to create a portal on a tab control to show all records (in this case a global To-Do list for all clients) but your explanation totally went over my head. Can you provide a more simplistic, step-by-step explanation please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
