Assign unique identifier from pool of identifiers across different forms
I'm setting up a title database for a publisher. It was originally set up in Filemaker. There's one form with information about each title (title, subtitle, series name, series number etc) and I need to assign multiple ISBNs (identification number) to each title depending on format (hardback, paperback, ebook, audio etc). I've got hundreds of ISBNs in a CSV to import, so I put these into one form. The title information is in another. I tried assigning them with a lookup, but have run into issues

Share data on the web
Hi, I have a fairly simple database in Access that is for my family - total family members 200. It contains names, addresses, phone numbers, birthdates, divorced, etc.. I would like for family members to search the database - read only, but be able to edit their own record. Although there are 200 people I would doubt that more than 50 would ever use it to edit. I have also been learning Filemaker but I am not seeing how to do that without paying a lot of money. Is there a way to do this with with

I am trying to make a simple if function, but apparently something I miss as I get error when saving if (input.PF_Deviation < 24) { input.Delay_Status = On Time; } PF_Deviation is a formula field subtracting two time stamps, hence the the result should be that Delay_Status (drop down) should read On Time when less then 24 hrs.

Adding an approval process
Hello I am sure this will be easy to fix - just haven't found the right answer yet! I have created a very simply form for entering website details. The details entered will then be listed in a publicly viewable grid. However, before enabling the public view for the grid, I would like to add a step where the entries submitted will need to be approved by me(the db creator) before they appear publicly. How do I enable this? Many thanks in advance H
Convert a numerically string into a decimal
Hello, I have a problem, converting a decimal like durations_of_days = 1.7825321 into a rounded decimal with the result of 1.78 In ZOHO Creator this works: durations_of_days_string = "" + (durations_of_days * 100).getPrefix(".") -> result: durations_of_days_string = 178 But in ZOHO Creator, for example, this does not work: durations_of_days_rounded_decimal = (0.0 + durations_of_days_string) / 100 -> result: durations_of_days_rounded_decimal = 1.78 or perhaps durations_of_days_rounded_decimal = durations_of_days_string.getNumeric

Multi-page forms
Could someone give me some insight into creating a multi-page form? It doesn't seem like that's out-of-the-box functionality, but is there a way to simulate such functionality through other means? I basically have a form, which is a bit long, so I would like to separate it into 3-4 separate pages. Ideally, I'd like the information from the form(s) to be stored in a single table to facilitate possible later edits. Searching through the forum, there seemed to be vague details about using subforms
