The TO "Companies-JoinCP-People" manages a many-to-many relationship.

Setting the Data Viewer to:

Count (Companies-JoinCP-People)

returns an accurate count no matter what record I jump to.

However, when used in an If statement it does not.

If(count(Companies-JoinCP-People) = 1

skips, does not enter the If statement when it should.

Exactly the same thing happens if I create an unstored calc field with the formula "count(Companies-JoinCP-People)". It displays accurately in the Data Viewer but doesn't function properly in a scripted If statement.

This is in FMP11. What am I misunderstanding?

Kind regards,

You are probably in the wrong context when your script gets to it. It's hard to say for sure, since Count (Companies-JoinCP-People) is not a valid expression in any case.

It is unclear what you're doing. The calc you describe is not complete, so of course it won't be accepted.

If(count(Companies-JoinCP-People) = 1 ; trueValue; falseValue)

Bruce, you're right. Should be

count(Companies-JoinCP-People:__PeopleID)

Count(Companies-JoinCP-People:__PeopleID)

is not a valid expression either: the table name contains a hyphen.
