Script that write text in a field in all selected records

[nixdorf]

Hi,

I have a script that finds records and after write a text in a field with:

 

 

- Perform find...

- Insert text...

 

But text only write in first of selected records... please, how I do to write text in ALL selected records?

Thanks,

Sorry Filemaker Mac 11

Use replace field contents.

Thanks,

but where? Do you refer "Select entire contents" in Scrip step options?

[doughemi]

Perform Find

Replace Field Contents[YourField; "Desired Text"]

 

Or if you want to add text to what is already there

 

 

Replace Field Contents[YourField; YourField & "Desired New Text"]

Thanks, but this works over ALL records selected?

It works over an entire found set. So if you have 1000 records and you have a found set of 500 displaying, it will make the change in the 500 records in the found set.
