I have a Ledger
It has an Account column - Cdn Dollar
I want to create a button that will allow me to find any record in a
list when this column is not empty, ie; there is a value.
This will allow me to see a single account in a multi-account Ledger.

I do not understand how to create a script that has a calculated
result.

Can you help

Thanks
Matthew

Try scripts with or without bottoms after you have found out how to find
the data manually.

In order to do that, go to find mode, place the cursor into your field
and try the "symbols" tool in the status area on the left.

The sign = will find records with an empty field. The sign * finds
records with anything in it.

Now that you know how to phrase the search, you can script it.

Usually I just use the = symbol and the Omit option, but I don't know if
there's any speed benefit / penalty between that and using the * symbol.

Didn't notice any difference either, but * is quicker on my Windows
keyboard because I need the shift key to get the =

I also had situations where = wouldn't work, probably with related data in
portal or something, but * and omit did.
