asked on

insert object button in filemaker

The button insert object does not specify in what field I need to insert the object. So it works fine if I have 1 button and 1 container field, but how can I do it if I have 2?


I want to have in my presentation

BUTTON 1 ---- FIELD1(CONTAINER)
BUTTON 2 ---- FIELD2(CONTAINER)

and when someone press the button1 allows him to insert and object in field1, and same with button2 and field2

ok, but, I need to do this without any external help. So I need a button than when you press it, it ask you for a file to enclose in the container. If the client has to select 1st the field that will hold the file it wont work.
maybe there is a focus function that can be ran by a script
that's roughly what "go to field" does, it activates the given field and the import action will apply to the current field
