    Mail Merge / PDF

    Is it possible to export a form (mail merge)in a PDF format? My goal is this. I am going to copy a PDF doc into a form to merge data onto. I then want to send the completed form back in a PDF format. Any suggestions or tips would be great. Thanks.

    Field Descriptions / Hints

    I'm sure this is quite simple, as it is in other db's. How do you make a button description pop up when you hover over a button? I haven't located it in the help menu.

    Open Application from Filemaker DB

    OK, That makes sense but that is where I was getting lost before. If I show the image in the portal (not the object), it doesn't allow me to double click on the image to open via another app. It only allows me to do that when I have the object (the generic object icon) visible in the portal...

    Open Application from Filemaker DB

    Thanks again. I was trying to make it more complicated than it needed to be. That works but my solution is not as smooth to the user than I want it to be. Here's what I am shooting for. I have a portal which contains photos of property. It's nice to view the actual picture via the portal...

    Open Application from Filemaker DB

    As you mentioned before. I want to be able to make this dynamic so that I don't have to tie a specefic path to the script. I want the script to work just as the way I manually inserted the object. Basically prompt the user for the path.

    Open Application from Filemaker DB

    Thanks for all the responses. Your solution works just as you said. I was just inserting a picture and not the object. I am new to filemaker. Can a script be written to produce the same results as what you just explained how to do manually? I am going to play around with that. Thanks again.

    Portal View shows the negative of a picture

    Thanks. The transparent button works like a champ. The scroll bar was colored correctly. It was a stupid mistake. The portal wasn't sized large enough to hold the scroll bar. Thanks again.

    Open Application from Filemaker DB

    Is is possible to open up internet explorer (or some other application) to view a .jpg that I have visible through a portal by clicking on the .jpg without using a plug-in? I have seen the launch.it plug in but I was curious if there was something easier I am overlooking. Thanks.

    Portal View shows the negative of a picture

    When clicking outside of any field inside a portal (in browse mode)that contains a .jpg the record is highlighted and the jpg shows as a negative. Its only temporary and corrects itself when another field is selected. Any way to not make this happen? One other question. In the same portal...
