- Is there a way to search for non-blank records in a script? Actually,
- I need to search for records that are not blank in fields W, X, Y, or Z, but
- all records will have data in fields A,B,C, and D.
-
- I can't even figure out a way to get Filemaker to perform a search for
- a pre-defined string when running a script. There must be a way to do this,
- because there are many applications I can see where you would want a button to
- find all occurences of something and print a report.
-
- Also, is there a way to make FMP2.0 print a report to a file instead of
- the printer? I could save quite a few trees each month with this feature.

- Thanks much,
