chrisknight55 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Instead of finding records within a fixed range 03/16/2011...03/30/2011 I want to find based on variable dates, so that I have a set that always shows me dates in the upcoming two weeks //... //+14 doesn't work >=// AND <= //+14 doesn't work Thanks for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comment Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Try using the Get(CurrentDate) function. Note that this cannot go into a stored request - you must either use the Enter Find Mode [] Set Field [ SearchField ; calculated criteria ]] Perform Find [] structure, or pre-calculate the criteria into a script variable.

chrisknight55 Posted March 16, 2011 Author Share Posted March 16, 2011 Thanks. I'm getting closer. My plan is to have a series of buttons, each set to Perform Script ["FindCurrentStudents"; parameter "TermX"] Where TermX is "Term1" or "Term2" or "Term3" Script "FindCurrentStudents" is: Enter Find Mode[] If [ Get (ScriptParameter) = "Term1"] Insert Calculated Result [select; Students::Start; Get (CurrentDate ) -28 & "..." & Get ( CurrentDate )] Else If [ Get (ScriptParameter) = "Term2"] Insert Calculated Result [select; Students::Start; Get (CurrentDate ) -56 & "..." & Get ( CurrentDate ) - 28 ] Else If [ Get (ScriptParameter) = "Term3"] Insert Calculated Result [select; Students::Start; Get (CurrentDate ) -84 & "..." & Get ( CurrentDate ) - 56 ] Endif Perform FInd [] The individual range statements work fine. How do I pass this parameter properly in the Perform Script statement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comment Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 How about making the script parameter 1 or 2 or 3, then: Enter Find Mode [] Set Field [ Students::Start ; Get (CurrentDate) - 28 * Get (ScriptParameter) & "…" & Get (CurrentDate) - 28 * ( Get (ScriptParameter) - 1 ) ] Perform Find [] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
