    Table Make one (ex Table1)

    Field Make Two (ex Text, Input)

    Button Formula

    let myID := number(Id);
    let myIN := Input;
    let x := (select Table1 where myID);
    x.(Text := myIN)

    Not sure how to decode that. My main table is named "Openings" that all records are linked to. The table linked to that (that I want to change a specific field by a button is named "Application" and the field, within Application that I want to change is a choice field named 'Change Status'

    Sakshi, I am trying to figure out your suggestion but I'm not sure if it would work for what I am trying to do.

    I am trying to get a button to change a True/False field for all records in a specific table. Would that work?

    @Halio,

    use this code for that

    ---

    let myChoice := true;
    for i in select YorTableName do
    i.('Yes / No' := myChoice)
    end

    ---

    Nick, thank you so much! 😃

    this is something I'll be using in a lot of variations and situation.

    i have two buttons now where one changes the hidden Edit field to true and the other one to false and the true button only shows when the edit field is false and vice versa.
