I would like to know if the following is possible:
1. I have two panels. The first panel contains a field ("MainField")
where I enter the name of a person in the following format:
Smith, John James
Atberg, Mary Jane
etc
2. In the second panel I have contact details for the person with
separate fields for first name, last name and so on
3. I have created a data link from MainField in panel 1 to the last
name field in the second panel with Prompt Create set. I have tested it
and it works. Ie when typing in a name in the first panel a record is
created in the second panel.
4. In the second panel I have created the required panel link to the
first panel and in the last name field I have entered a subfield
function to use only the last name from "Smith, John James":
subfield[P1F1;",";1]
but it does not work. Whether with or without this function, I still get
"Smith, John James" in the second panel last name field.
Is what I wish to do achievable and am I doing it in the right way?
Help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Victor Warner.
