I have a radio button named Questionaire on layout Dinner from the
Table Dinner. I built a second layout named student that is linked to
the table dinner but only shows the students. When I do a find on the
Student layout for Questionaire I get too may results and it displays
radio buttons that are not marked.

I have been over the relationships, I have walked backwards through
the realtionships. What am I doing wrong!?

Thanks so very much!!!

There are are more possible answers to this.

Possinble are: searching on students will return ALL students, maked and
unmarked. Searching on only marked or unmarked will find all subjects which
include students and all others.

second: finding on eggs will deliver eggs, eggs baked, eggs fried etc etc.

So without knowing more of the exact structure and contents of you solution
it is not possible to guess what exactly is happening. And as good practice
you might also post platform and version with all your questions. Answers
may vary according to these.

Keep well, Ursus

Hi...yes I agree with your analogy but I am not searching for students
and getting students.

I will try again and please be patient with me because I am a new
user.

FileMaker Pro v. 8.5, FileMaker Server, Windows Op XP Professional.

I linked a radio button from one layout to another. When I perform a
find for questionaire=active radio button and "only active radio
button" I get results that do not make sense. An active radio button
to me means that the center is filled in. I do not get all of the
records in the database but not all of the returns have an active
radio button.

I have constrained the find to just questionaire=active radio button.

I hope I have been more clear.

Thanks.
