This is sort of portal related, so i'll try here.

I'm trying to get from a layout in one file to a particular layout in another file. The second file is the many in a one ot many portal. Normally i'd do the "show related record" but the layout in the other file is just a menu, w/ no data being shown. What's the best way to do this?

Make a script in the other file:

Go to Layout [Menu]

Now in the first file make a script:

Perform Script [External, 2nd file, Go to Menu]

If the execution of the script depends on the contents of the portal, then you'd use something like:

If [2nd file::field = "some criteria"]

Perform the external script as above

End If

That worked great. Oh ya, definatly was having a brain fade moment there. Sometimes the simplist things seem so compliated.
