Count of recordset problem

[Kevin Cheesman]

I have a window that opens and shows filtered records using a Find step to tweek out only records that have a certain date. I would like to put the number of records found on the window name but I only get back the whole number of records in my table. I have added a field called RecordCount and have used Get(Foundcount) as the calc.

I'm using windows if it matters... and maybe I missed something but I had no problem getting mine to show 81 as the window name - there are 6000 total records in the table - after preforming a find.

I didn't use any fields just the calc in the "New Window" script step...

Used in the script:

New Window [Name: Get(FoundCount) & "Records Found in this search"]

I've just this minute done it by using a summary field. I don't know if that is the 'correct' way, but it works.

Doubt it matters but it seems a little easier to just put the calc in the "new window" script step to me since it has it right there in window options...

But as long as it works!

HHuuummm...

I just noticed that this not only named the new window but changed the existing window name......

Now why and how to get it back?

Stupid me... I thought I closed the other window....
