saving finds in fm 10

[Jalz]

Hi Guys,

At the moment I can save finds in fm 10 which is a great feature. The only problem I have is I would like to share that find with other users on our network who all log in with different account names through active directory. Does anyone know if I can programmatically do this through scriptmaker (i.e. allow saved finds to be accessed by other members in the same active directory group)

Ray Cologon details a solution for this in his FM10 Bible. He basically stores the find criteria, layout and "name of the find" in a table--in, of course, a very elegant way.

There is no way to share FM's builtin saved finds across Accounts.

Hi bcooney,

Thanks for the reply, I think I'll buy the book as it sounds like a good reference. Can you tell me whether it is a dynamic find across many tables or is it based (albeit a little more advanced) on one table like his demo in http://www.nightwing.com.au/FileMaker/demos9/demo903.html

Thanks

Jalz

This demo seems to be exactly what's in the book.
