FILEMAKER PRO HELP 999
Originated in
FileMaker Pro 6.0 or earlier
Description
When you select Specify find requests at the time the script step is defined, FileMaker Pro
displays the current find request(s), if any. Additional find requests can be defined, and existing find
requests can be duplicated, edited, or deleted.
To edit a find request, select it from the list in the Specify Find Requests dialog box and click Edit.
In the Edit Find Requests dialog box, select the action (Find Records or Omit Records) you want
the find request to perform. A single find request can either find records or omit records, but cannot
perform both actions at the same time. Use multiple find requests to find and omit records from
within a single script step.
For each field in your request, specify the criteria for which you want FileMaker Pro to search.
Example 1
Goes to the Invoice Details layout, enters Find mode, pauses for user input, and performs the find.
