In Find Mode: OnObjectExit or Perform find - which runs first?

Featured Replies

A text field, in which you can only enter data into in Find Mode, also has a script trigger: "OnObjectExit", which is also only run in Find Mode.

When you hit Enter/Return, which is run first, the find, or the script trigger?

I have a feeling it's the find, as I'm having problems avoiding fm's error when no records are found.

Thanks, Unkynd

What are you trying to achieve with the script trigger?

You can suppress the built-in FM error by using Set Error Capture ON at the top of your find script (that is, if you have one).

Essentially a pop up window with a list of search results to quickly choose which record to go to.

Currently, the script doesn't handle the find, only the results. I'm wondering if there's any way to trigger the script before the find is performed by filemaker.
