dvandam Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I would like to be able to control the cursor within a text field. I have a large text field and I would like to be able to go to the beginning of the field instead of the end when I use the Go To Field statement. Does anyone know of a way to do that? Thanks.

CobaltSky Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Hi dvandam, If you are using FileMaker 6, then you might consider the following sequence: Insert Calculated Result ["YourField", " "·" & YourField"] Perform Find/Replace [No Dialog, "·", "", "Replace All"] - and in the settings dialog for the Perform Find/Replace[ ] command, set the direction as 'Backward' and the scope as Current record/request and Current field.

dvandam Posted April 25, 2005 Author Share Posted April 25, 2005 That works. Thanks. But the user I am doing this for doesn't have 6. Also, not sure why replace all works but just replace or some of the other options don't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
