Hi all,

I'm hoping someone has a solution to what I'm trying to figure out:

I have a portal list in one layout for products. In another layout, I have a portal list of the same products, only there is loads of information you can enter about each product (custom products) and the portal rows are very large. Because of the nature of our business, all this info on one product is necessary at time but not at others. This is why I created a simple list.

My problem is this: Can you click on a button in a portal row and have FileMaker switch to another layout with that same portal in it and go to the row you clicked from in the other layout?

Thanks for any help,

Chris

Yes. Create a global number field to store the portal row. Then:

Set Field (gPortalRow, Status (Current Portal Row)

Go to layout (other portal layout)

Go to Field (whatever)

Go to Portal Row (by field content, gPortalRow)
