I'm having trouble figuring out something which is probably simple.

If I right click on a field and select "Find Matching Records," all matching records are found. Is there a way to script "Find Matching Records?" I see "Constrain Found Set" but not "Find Matching Records," which I would like to script so I can place a button on the layout.

Thank you,

Kevin

Is there a way to script "Find Matching Records?"

There is no dedicated script step for this, but you can roll your own:

Set Variable [ $criteria ; YourTable::YourField ]

Enter Find Mode []

Set Field [ YourTable::YourField ; $criteria ]

Perform Find []

Thank you, comment, I appreciate your help.

Set Variable [ $criteria ; YourTable::Field ]

Enter Find Mode []

Set Field [ YourTable::Field ; $criteria ]

Perform Find []

you can find by this script

Well, that answer certainly adds a whole lot more to the previous one from comment ...

Set Variable [ $criteria ; YourTable::Field ]

Enter Find Mode []

Set Field [ YourTable::Field ; $criteria ]

Perform Find []

you can find by this script

Please do not repeat a previous answer without commet.

I think he was 'quoting' Comment and he added the last line with "you can find by this script" but it did appear strange because of how it was ran together.

On the other 'similar' post, he answered right behind Comment (7 minutes, I believe). Many times we all post 'duplicate' answers but they are posted before we see someone responded first. English may not be his native tongue and it may take him longer to type his answers.
