Hello guy's

I have a question. as you can see on the image the layouts shows the records of current year 2011. i have a script that allows me to go to the next year (script on the image), but if the layouts shows the current year i want to prevent that the scripts stops because there are no records at the moment of year 2012. I tried something but nothing helped, how can i do this?

Kind regards,

Serhat

In your first script line, you're comparing a date to a year.

Thats true... i tried something but the original code is this

Try something like:

If [ Year ( YourTable::YourDateField ) < Year ( Get (CurrentDate) ) ]

# DO THE THING

...

Else

Beep

End If

Try something like:

If [ Year ( YourTable::YourDateField ) < Year ( Get (CurrentDate) ) ]

# DO THE THING

...

Else

Beep

End If

Thank you very much it works

I want also this for the previous year. i have 2009 as latest records. how can do it for previous years?

Instead of Year( get( CurrentDate ) ) create a global number field to store the Year of the calendar.

I want also this for the previous year. i have 2009 as latest records.

I think you mean earliest? How about:

If [ Year ( YourTable::YourDateField ) > 2009 ]

...

I am not too crazy about hard-coding data, but if you're not backdating records, it should do. Otherwise you'd have to do something like:

Set Variable [ $firstYear ; Year ( sMinDate ) ]

Freeze Window

Show Omitted Only

Set Variable [ $firstYear ; Min ( $firstYear ; Year ( sMinDate ) ) ]

Show Omitted Only

If [ Year ( YourTable::YourDateField ) > $firstYear ]

...

where sMinDate is a summary field defined as Minimum of [YourDateField].
