ILEMAKER SCRIPT STEPS REFERENCE 80
Description
This script step temporarily hides the current record.
Omit Record only operates in Browse mode and Find mode. When this script step is performed in
Find mode, it causes the find request to become an Omit request, as if the Omit checkbox had been
selected.
Examples
Show All Records
Omit Record
Show Omitted
Enter Preview Mode [Pause]
Omit Multiple Records
Purpose
Omits several records from the found set, starting with the current record, and places you on the
next record in the table.
Format
Omit Multiple Records [No dialog; <number of records>]
Options
• Perform without dialog prevents a dialog box from displaying when the script step
executes; the dialog lets the user enter the number of records to be omitted.
When Perform without dialog is selected, if you do not specify the number of records, only the
current record is omitted.
• Select Specify records or click Specify to enter the exact number of records you want to
omit. You can also click Specify in the Options dialog box and enter a calculation. The
calculation result must be a number.
Compatibility
This script step is also supported in web publishing and in a FileMaker Server scheduled script.
Description
This script step temporarily hides the omitted records. If this script step is performed from Layout
mode, FileMaker Pro switches to Browse mode after the script step has been performed.
Examples
Perform Find [Restore]
Omit Multiple Records [No Dialog, 3]
