show related record in specific lay-out

[eddyc1]

Have a file with workshops and portal with students who follows a specific workshop.

In the portal there is a button. When i click on it it goes to the related record in the related file. It shows the latest lay-out when i work on in the related file.

How can i force it (in a script )when i click on the portal button that the related record opens in a specific lay-out in the related file.

Hi Jull,

you need two scripts, one in the master db and the second in the related db as the following example:

In the main:

- goto related records (only relted)

- perform script(external,Myscript2 -it must reside in the rel. db)

in the related db:

- goto layout (Your Layout)

Obviously apply some navigational trick in order to be able to "come home" to the original db / layout.
