Fieldmark with Actionmenu

[Terry Pickering]

The following is a valid command:


ACTIONMENU LABEL "Select" ACTION DESIGNER VADD, FIELDMARK


But, I get a syntax error if I try:


ACTIONMENU LABEL "Select" ACTION FIELDMARK, DESIGNER VADD


What I'm trying to do is select from a cluster the record I want before running the designer procedure. Another strange thing is if I use this syntax (note there is no comma between the commands like it says there needs to be in the manual)


ACTIONMENU LABEL "Select" ACTION DESIGNER VADD MARK


It will prompt for a "from and to" ID-range. I can't use this because the id numbers are hidden.  And finally, I tried putting a PUSH FIELDMARK as the first statement in the designer procedure, but it seemed to ignore it.


Is this one of QUICK's quirks, or what? Seems like it should let you do a fieldmark prior to running the designer since it lets you do it afterwards.....
