Again trying for a script search solution.

What I need is that the 'data' in your "SetField [A, 'data']" step is
taken from the contents of a field from a related table. The related
table do have only one record with base information for the entire >database.
The related table is connected with use of the "X" mark
---------X-----------
so data is valid for every record in the related second "big" table with
many records.

If I understand correctly, you're using this table to store global
values. If that's the case, you might be better off defining all the
fields as global (under Storage Options check 'Global'). If you do
this, you can access the fields from any other table without needing a
relationship.

To get data out of one of the fields, simply use

SetField[destination; source]

like so

SetField[A; Globals::globalFieldB]
