April 30, 200223 yr Can someone please tell me how to write a script to move data from fieldA to fieldB. Can this be done? Any help would be great. RET
April 30, 200223 yr Sure, You can use Set field [fieldB, FieldA] If you want to keep the contents of field B and add field A to it then use Set field [fieldB, Field B & "PP" & FieldA] If you want to move the contents of FieldA and then remove afterwards add on the next line of your script. Set field [fieldA, ""] The PP is the paragraph return symbol next to the operators. HTH
May 7, 200223 yr Yes, you can move data... with scripts and/or calculations... Below are 3 ways to move data with calculations and 2 way to move data with scripts. Also, I have created a sample file. E-mail me if you would like it. 3 Calculation Samples Below: A-1. When you enter data in field-A... the same data will INITIALLY appear in field-B... - Create field-B with a "Auto-enter Calculation" that sets field-B to "=field-A" -- this works ONLY ONE TIME when creating a NEW Record -- any changes to field-A WILL NOT UPDATE field-B -- you can still manually change
