Hi Angus, Not sure if this will help.
Have a table field on the form where you want to search records. The form on which value is inserted on "Open Window" should have an AL that would fire on Window Loaded and check if FieldValue!=$NULL$, perform a Refresh table action. Under table properties, write the criteria you need to specify for searching. Keep drill down option available on table to open records in new window. Thnx Chintan. --- On Sun, 5/30/10, Angus Comber <arsl...@iteloffice.com> wrote: From: Angus Comber <arsl...@iteloffice.com> Subject: Is it possible to run a search from an activelink? To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Date: Sunday, May 30, 2010, 10:34 AM ** What I want to do is have something trigger my active link - eg click of a button, which would open a new form, set a field to a value and then run a search using that form to find all records where field value is the value inserted. I can see how an Open Window active link gets me part way there. But how can I get the search to run without any further user intervention? Is this possible using an active link? If so how?
