Yes, you would have to do that if the values in the setup field are changed. I'm a little confused about what you're asking, though. I don't see a member level field in the payments file. There is a field called Level, from which the member level field in the names file is looked up. If I'm guessing right about what you need to do... You'd have to put the Level field on a layout somewhere where you could get at it. Find the set of records to operate on (presumably all with a single value of Level). Put the cursor into that field and change the value to what you want it to be. Use the FileMaker Replace Command (script of that name, or on the Records menu) to copy the value from the current record into all the records in the found set. Repeat for each value of the Member level you changed. Then run the Replace All Find Fields to update the Member level in the Names file. -- -- Dave Shaw H4 Consulting tel: 206-954-7526 fax: 206-625-1338 ------------------ Reminder to each recipient: To change your list account preferences, go to http://email.sparklist.com/scripts/lyris.pl?enter=support and enter the email address you used to subscribe to the ebase support list:: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- ebase - Relationship Management for Nonprofits, http://www.ebase.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------
