Now that v7 is out, I've started playing with bringing some of my
company's (still in use) HyperCard/9to5 Reports systems over to
LiveCode.
I have a customer database. If I want to pull up all Tokyo
customers,
mark cards where "Tokyo" is in field "city"
is working well. But if I want to pull up Tokyo and Yokohama
customers,
Question 1) is the a 'mark cards' command that will pull up both?
For example
mark cards where "Tokyo" or "Yokohama" is in field "city"
(this does not work...)
I can achieve what I want by running the mark cards command for
each city:
mark cards where "Tokyo" is in field "city"
mark cards where "Yokohama" is in field "city"
This gives me the data set I need. But is there a way to do it in
one pass?
Question 2) How would I use the mark cards, or some other
command, to pull up AND constructs. For example marks cards where
"Main Street" AND "Central Ward" are in field "address" ??
Thanks,
