pick list to choose one record

[chrisknight55]

I'm looking for a pick list.

A list of all clients names. Click on one to see just that record in a new layout.

Great if typing one letter anywhere would narrow the search. Ex. typing 'D' would move to the 'D''s.

Thanks for you your help

A pick list is usually needed when you want to stay on a layout, but select a value.

In FM, you can accomplish what you're asking with a list view layout based on your clients table. You could add a script triggered find field at the top of the list view to narrow the list to the starting letter (or use QuickFind).

On a list view, you can place a button that switches the user to a form view (to "see just that record in a new layout").
