Hi,

In Filemaker advanced 11, can open related table with drop-down, but in Vr.12 unable this process.

I mean, I have a categories table and related to this table some product, when in Invoice form I click on categories i can saw only related product to this special category.

In fm 12, I design database but when I click ,nothing happen.

Please help me,

Thank you

If I'm understanding you correctly, nothing you describe has changed in v12.

If you have converted your v11 file into v12, it should work as it did in v11.

If you are recreating your file in v12, then you need to verify that you haven't messed something in the process. Is everything set up identical such as the relationship, fields types,etc.

You did not answer my question about how the v12 file came to be.

I think Filemaker v12 have very problem, and that not useful for this time.

I disagree, I think v12 is as good as past versions, with some great new design tools to work with.

I have a drop down with a value list populated with data from a related table. Worked fine in fm11. After conversion to fm12, still works fine.

Hi I had the same problem - solved the problem in the value list setup 'include only related values starting from:' - well they were all previously set up from the initial relationship 'current table' which used to show as 'unknown' but now you have to do it as it was intended and select the table from which the related value starts.

Hope this makes sense, I'm sure this will make more sense when you get into the value list setup.
