Hello,

I need to put a text on a field that is the result of "collecting" sub
strings from other records.

I know how to write a script that collects the substrings and put them
in the field. Now I would like to call the script from a lookup so
that when the record is created (in a portal) the script is called.

Is this possible? I am running FM7

Thanks

There are a couple of free plugins that will activate a script upon change
to a field.

EventScript from http://www.softs4humans.com

and

zippScript from http://homepage.mac.com/jkornhaus/

Tip: I haven't really done anything with zippScript yet, but I know from
EventScript experience that you are probably going to want to do your
collecting in a global field, so that you have the final result before you
put it in the destination (trigger) field. If you used the trigger field
to do your collecting, you would be activating the script with each record
collected.
