The header object is easily copied into every required layout. Your solution takes more time and effort to implement, but it has the advantage for the user to immediately identify the fields he can use for search requests. I use it sometimes too, occasionally mixing it with a solution that does not require the user to switch into find mode at all. I might write about that someday.

I solved the issue with the same function but I used a different visual notifier. I selected all fields they search on and applied conditional formatting: Condition: Get( WindowMode ) = 1 Fill Color: light yellow. So now all fields the user can search on turn yellow when entering find mode. Best, Agi www.zerobluetech.com I had the same user complaints.

This is THE WORST joke ever! I was beyond elated reading this article only to have it all come crashing down at the end. I would have been able to look my IT friends in the eye when I told them I was a FileMaker programmer! The only way you can make it up to me is to kidnap all FileMaker programmers and lock them in your basement until the aforementioned features are working. You suck! This is THE WORST joke ever!
