Can I move items from one table to another?
Hi, is there a way to move items from one table to another? I have a database to stocktake household items and within it I have one table for Fridge items And another for Freezer items. If I decide to freeze something from the fridge, can I move it into the freezer table or do I have to delete it and re-enter it in the other table?
Thanks.

You can put logic behind a button.. and when on the record click the button that would create a Freezer row.. and delete the Fridge row.

@Mconneen-sensei, Even though this is possible, it might make more sense design-wise to have a Choice field with Fridge and Freezer options and then filter on that field.

@Sean.... Totally agree... but answered the question asked.. LOL.. :)

Sean's way would be interesting with a Kanban view, where you can literally drag things from the fridge to the freezer...

If you still want to move data, use this code behind a button:
let reply := dialog("", "Would you like to continue moving this record to Table B", ["Yes", "No"]);
if reply = "Yes" then
let tempB := (create Table2);
let my1 := Field1;
let my2 := Field2;
tempB.(Field1 := my1);
tempB.(Field2 := my2);
delete this;
openRecord(tempB);
alert("Data moved successfully")
end
You can remove the dialog and alert lines if you want...
