request, updating field data and making no field active.

"Click 'Commit' to save your changes, or 'Revert' to
discard changes to this record."]
#1 = Commit, 2 = Revert
If [Get(LastMessageChoice) = 1]
Commit Records/Requests

End If

Format

Options
None.
Web compatibility
This script step is web-compatible.
Description
Copies the values of a record or find request
to the Clipboard. Text fields are copied in
tab-delimited format, without styles, in the order they appear in the record layout. Text in
container fields is also copied. (This step is equivalent to choosing Copy from the Edit
menu when there is no active field.)
Note When using the Copy Record/Request step with repeating fields
, FileMaker Pro
inserts the group separator character between each repetition. You can use a text editor
to replace these characters with another delimiter such as a tab or space.
