FMP10 spoiling Portal behavior

[Wickerman]

I recently upgraded to FMP 10 Advanced from 9, and while happy with many of the new featurs, today I'm appalled to discover that some very basic functionality in one of my file seems to have been compromised.

What I built in 9 is a portal from a Main table to a 'Join' table that displays keyword 'tags' from a 'Lexicon' Table on the other side of the Join table. So -- Main titles joined to a Lexicon table via a Join table since A Title can have many Keyeords and a Keyword can have many titles. It works fine in my FMP9 solution. I have a filtering portal that allows the user to assign keywords by clicking on them, and another table displaying the terms already tagged and a button in the portal row set to 'Delete Record' so the User can delete any particular keyword. Works fine.

Now, however, opening the same file in FMP10, I find that when I click on that 'Delete' button, it deleted *all* the records from the portal -- not just the one on that line!

I've made no other changes -- and I can go back and forth, opening the file in 9 and 10 -- 9 works fine, deletes one portal row. 10 deletes all portal rows.

This feel disastrous because I'm wondering what else in the file is just plain "not hoing to work' in 10 -- I'm baffled and disheartened.

Any suggestions?

Post a clone. I think something's up with how it's built, and it's difficult to see your own errors. A button in a portal should be set to "Delete Portal Row," not "Delete Record."

Albert,

What are the script steps for the record deletion?

Oh -- sctually you spotted the problem -- I had the button set on 'Delete Record' -- changing it to 'Delete Portal Row' has solved the problem.

Still, it's interesting this was not problematic in FMP9.

Thanks!
