Using FM 8

Is this possible:

I'm setting up layout and table,'Frontpage.' Here I have a portal from a table, 'Matchdates,' with fields: 'date,' and 'team.'

I want to make a button inside the portal row wich set the fields 'date,' and 'team, in the 'Frontpage' layout and table from the record/row of desire in the portal.

I have managed this through a self relation, and hoped it could work from another table.

Yes it's possible. You have essentially described how to do it: make a script with the "Set Field" steps and put the button in the portal.

If I am understanding you correctly, you want to set two fields ( date and team) in the parent table to the data in your related portal record with the row that you choose correct?

If so and your button is in the portal row, then you can just use a script tied to that button with a couple of set fields.

Set Field [date; Matchdates::date]

Set Field [team; Matchdates::team]

Just the setfields was it.

It works now.

Thanks, guys!
