Hi there,

I have a databse of children's games that is searchable by any number of criteria, e.g.;

Topic

Age

Language Skill

Group size

etc...

Once the teachers search for their game, how could I display at the top of the page the exact search terms they used in their perform find for example:

Clothing

4-6 year olds

Speaking activites

(These are all searchable items)

I imagine I need to $Set Variables at the moment of seach and then paste those variables into a global field placed in the header? Or am I way off track?

Thanks so much,

Maria

Instead of setting global fields, you can set the variables as $$globalVariable and then show them on the layout by inserting Merge Variable.

One method I use in a similar scenario is to show the records in a portal, and instead of doing a find, I use global fields on the layout with pop-ups with the various criteria and then use the contents of the pop-ups to filter the portal. then you can click in the portal and go to the related record.
