Count-up/Tally question...

[Jolly Blackburn]

Hope this is the right place for this question.

 

It's been about 5 years since I've done any scripting in FileMaker and I'm afraid I've forgotten more than ever knew.

 

I'm attempting to make a simple tool for work. I need to count things -- as you would with a sports thumb counter.

 

The idea is to have a big buttom I can click that will advance by 1 each time it's clicked.

The current count will be used by other fields for caluclations.

 

I know it should be simple but I just can't figure out how to do it. Any help?

 

Usually I can figure out things by searching for examples of someone else's scripting and reverse engineer it but google has failed. me.

The ONE link I found for a count-up button was broken. 

 

Thanks in advance.

Button action:

 

Set Field[CounterField; CounterField + 1]
