Re: FM question: Omit in find (fifth attempt)

Yes, I think I'm after an exact match, but I can't get there, even with your suggestion. With "==" & gCourseTitle (i.e., "==Studies") I get an error with the UI, and 0 with AS. If I eliminate one "=" to "=Studies") I always get "Synoptic Studies" thrown in together. If I try the exact text option of the find (i.e., "" or "Studies", in my case), I get also Synoptic Studies.

Thanks for your help.

Max



What you're after, I think, is an exact match -- like you get in a UI find
with "==Studies". Try this:

tell application "FileMaker Pro"
tell database 1
delete every request
create new request
set cell "Class" of request 1 to ("==" & gCourseTitle)
set cell "SubType" of request 1 to QuestionType
find
end tell
end tell
