So, to find all the items in the variable-length list "theList":
<snip>
Unfortunately, I can't get it to work when run as a ScriptMaker step within
FMPro 4 -- problems referencing the correct database to create the requests
in, or one DB being left "paused" during the script -- so I shall be using
my version for that job.
I've never had any problem scripting multiple requests in v4 or v5.
Of course, calling the correct database is important. ;-)
If you are only doing "find x or y" then an alternative to "finding"
is to use relationships. Set up a relationship between a global text
field and cell "fruit". Pop your list of fruit into the global field
and "show related records only".
