Losing found set through perform find

[Maxime C]

Hello,

After a long time to search, I can't find the answer, so I am looking for some help here.

I am doing a perform find restore which give me a restricted table.

With this restricted table I am doing a loop in order to calculate something for all the rows.

Inside this loop I am doing an OTHER perform find restore.

The point is when I am trying to get to the next rows, he did not still have the table of my first perform find restore but the final one which I do not wan because I want to skim all the rows.

How can I keep the table of my first perform find in order to use at the end of the loop.

I hope I would be clear even if I don't think I were.

Do not hesitate to ask me more precisions,

Thanks for your help

In the joined PDF, my script problem start at the of page 1 until the beginning of page 3,

all is signaled in red, the pentagon are the perform find which mofify my plan, the red rectangle is the perform find I would like to use for the all loop

If I understand this correctly - and that's a BIG if - you need to return to the "Ship" layout before going to the next record.

Yes that is it, I need to go back to a restricted part of the ship layout (that is the aim of the first perform find restore in red rectangle) before going to the next record

Edit: It's OK I have found my mistake, I did not know that when you were doing a perform find on a table, the next time you will use it, Filemaker was keeping the same restricted table and not showing all the records.

I haven't looked at your script, but when you are faced with the need to preserve a found set, open a new window. Each window has its own found set. After you're done with whatever operation you want to do in the new window, simply close it, and you're back where you left off.
