The kb is handy but, for searching, try this in Google site:https://kb.4d.com debugger <https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=site:https://kb.4d.com+debugger&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8> The full text search in the doc center is handy (upper right hand corner) but this works pretty well: site:https://doc.4d.com/4Dv17R3 query by formula <https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=site:https://doc.4d.com/4Dv17R3+query+by+formula&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8> -- Douglas von Roeder 949-336-2902 On Fri, Mar 1, 2019 at 11:12 AM John J Foster <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey Doug, > > I thought there’d be an KB step but couldn’t;t find it.
