Hi, I have a database with 3 layouts.

what i want to do is go from layout 1 to layout 2 or 3 and when i go back to layout 1 I am on the record i was viewing.

 

Set Varaible [($Number; Value:Get (RecordNumber)]

Go to Record/Request/Page [No dialog;$Number]

 

This does not work!

any ideas?

 

 

Have you tried to simply switch layouts? Unless “go back to layout 1” involves a GTRR – or there are some other mechanisms in play that alter the found set for layout 1 – you land on the record from which you left off.

A button with a script take the user back to layout one.

OK, why don't you get a bit more concrete and tell what you're doing between leaving layout 1 until you return there?

Hi Ian,

Record Numbers may change if you perform a Find or a Sort step.  Then Go to Record [$Number] will subsequently return you to a different record.   You can use Get (RecordID) to confirm whether you are on the same record as when you started, but there is no script option to Go to a particular record according to its Record ID number.
