I know this has been addressed before, but I thought I'd try to push it a bit further. The issue is how to enter a common action to a found set simultaneously. If 50 people attended an event, say.
There is the wizard for batch entering Contacts but not Actions. Dave Shaw mentioned he exports the record numbers and re-imports them into the Actions file and then uses the FileMaker "Replace" function to add a common action for the set. I'm wondering if anyone has gone a step further and created a script that does this? Specifically I was wondering if the script for the wizard for bulk entering Contacts could be duplicated and modified to do the same thing except for Actions. Our client is squeamish about exporting and importing; an automated solution would sit much more easily. Before experimenting, I thought I'd see if others have already paved the way.
