Your file cannot be opened and your description is not clear.

 

Thanks for your response, 

What I am trying to do is to export data for a session or sessions with all related speakers to the session,  when I do so only the first speaker is exported the others do not export.

Your file still cannot be opened. Make sure to close the file before attaching it.

What is the format you're exporting to?

as a .mer

I am assuming you have two tables: Sessions (parent) and Speakers (child).

If you export from the Sessions table, and include fields from the Speakers table in the field export order, you will get a row for each speaker, but the fields from the Sessions table will be populated only in the first row of each session, for example:

Session,Speaker
"Session A","Speaker A.1"
"","Speaker A.2"
"","Speaker A.3"
"Session B","Speaker B.1"
"","Speaker B.2"

If you export from the Speakers table, and include fields from the Sessions table in the field export order, you will get a "flat table" with full row for each speaker:

Session,Speaker
"Session A","Speaker A.1"
"Session A","Speaker A.2"
"Session A","Speaker A.3"
"Session B","Speaker B.1"
"Session B","Speaker B.2"

To export the currently viewed Sessions from the Speakers table, start your script with Go to Related Record[] and select the 'Match all records in the current found set' option.

Always share compressed files; such as .zip or .xz, or you can just save a copy of the file and name it 2015_conference.fp7.bin

This one opened for me.

 

The script attached to the Button “View Speaker List” is a script called “Attendee List” - could that be the problem?
