Can I have the ability to search like I do in FileMaker Pro?
Basically, this means, can a user click a button to make each field on the form searchable? Has anyone done something like this? Can it be done utilizing the StrataFrame environment?
My thinking is that it would be an extremely difficult task. Just trying to allow a search on one BO (outside of a browse dialog) can be tricky...I cannot imagine tying together several BOs to allow for this kind of functionality. I could be wrong, though.
Thanks for your input,Bill
I am not going to go this route. The mere thought of setting up one form to perform a "search-by-form" feature is terrifying. Mostly because, if I do it for one, then I have to do it for them all. That would be a huge task that would provide little in the way of ROI, or actually a negative ROI.
My goal is to convince the users that the browse dialog is sufficient. We can address odd search criteria on a case-by-case basis.
Have a great day!Bill
You nailed it!
