Only displaying partial results

Support, Tips and Mods for Matt Navarre's SearchResults technique.
PostPosted: Fri May 21, 2010 5:06 am
When I perform a search on a partial last name I receive 3 results when there should be 7. However, the the found count display is correct, "Results 1 to 7 of 7 for: XXXX".

Any thoughts on why I am only seeing a fraction of the results?

Yes, this likely a sort issue: it sounds like FMSR is starting to display your results from the middle of the list instead of the first of the found records.

To fix this, edit the script "Create Result Lines" and after the second divider (the second "±±±±±±±±±±±±±±±±±±±") you'll see a step that is disabled: this is a Go To Record/Request/Page [First].

If you're using FileMaker Advanced, enable that step. If you're not, then add a new Go To Record/Request/Page [First] step right below it.

Let us know if that fails to fix it.
