I have a file that relates a list of template descriptions to a field in a second layout. I would like to set the template text up as a button and when activated have the text placed in the field of the second layout. This much I can accomplish but where I get stuck is if I want to add more information from the template descriptors to the layout field. (eg.) Blue Eyes, Blonde Hair, Pierced Ears. I can only transfer one, when I click on the second it replaces the first. Any help is appreciated.

I am not sure exactly what you are using but you must include the field's value WITH the new entry, such as:

Set Field [ theField ; newData & " " & theField ]

Much depends upon whether you wish to place the new data before or after and whether you wish for a paragraph break between etc. :wink2:

The fields value in layout one will come from the template information as it is selected. I want to concatenate the template selection into the field in the order the template information is selected. So the template information will be added one at a time following one another in the order selected.

This time look at Patients layout, not, Patient Visits.

LaRetta,

I finally figured out what I am to do and your method is exactly what I had wanted.

Thanks!
