Hello,

I'm using FMPA 11. I want to enter a value in a field. On these field I
wan't to connect a scripttrigger that launches a script when the content
of the field has changed.
I thought I could do this by by selecting "OnObjectModify" in de Set
Script triggers. My problem is the following.
Lets say in the field (number) you have the number 100. I want to enter
200 and since is different to 100 the "connected" script should be
launched. Problem is that the script is launched from the moment I
entered the first digit (in this case the 2).
Is there a way to launch the script when this content is different (and
only then) to the previous content, but that this is "checked" after I
entered the whole new number and I exit or save the object.
An extra problem is that I'm doing this through a portal, so the option
to copy the previous content into another field while entering the
layout or instance and doing the check afterwards by comparing these two
is no option.

Thank you in advance,

Marc

I'd take OnObjectSave and compare the content to a global variable or
global field that I'd have set with OnObjectEnter on the same field.

FileMakers behaviour is correct. Typing into a field is a
modification. Have a look for another scripttrigger which fits better to
your needs.

Of course, perfect and simple solution. Thanks
