Cross Plaform Runtime Solution

[mccallister]

We have created a Georgia History Testbank with FileMaker Developer 5 that will allow teachers to select questions by from a database of 1560 questions and create their own unique tests. One of the layouts is the "Search Page" which has the four different search criteria selectable from popup menus--Unit no., Chapter No., Type (multiple choice, true/false etc.) and question set. The problem is that, in the runtime version for windows, when this layout is accessed the chapter no. popup menu shows as fully opened. Clicking on the background makes it close but everytime the layout is entered the same problem occurs. This action has never been a problem with the regular 5.0 version of the files. Also, I haven't created the mac version yet so am not sure if the bug resides there also.

Thanks,

If you are using scripts to access the layouts, just add the "Go to Field[]" script step with no field selected.

The Exit Record script step is even better. Or, remove the field from the Tab order,
