Creating custom smartlists in Dexterity with fields that have an array.

I've done well so far and have gotten my custom smartlists to work properly with the exception of fields that have an array. Many of the procedures use resourceid(field 'fieldname here') in a case statement, but I can't figure out how to differentiate between fieldname[1] and fieldname[2] to get all of my array items into the smartlist structure. I would also like to create a GOTO that opens a form? Is there any updated documentation on the changes to smartlist in GP 2013R2?

Thanks

RE: Creating custom smartlists in Dexterity with fields that have an array.

Thank you, but I am trying to create smartlists in Dexterity as part of a chunk file. My issue is really how to uniquely reference a field that is an array using a reference id, which only seems to be on the field level. The scripts in the Dexterity Manuals use the reference id to set the parameters for each field.

Thanks,

RE: Creating custom smartlists in Dexterity with fields that have an array.

Hello Douglas,

If you are using SmartList Designer, you should be able to see the array fields with array subscript while selecting the fields from a table as shown in the screen shot below. Each field in an array will be differentiated by the subscript in Smartlist Designer. Creating a GOTO that opens a form is not yet included (even in GP 2015) and the latest changes with respect to Smartlist (specific to Smartlist Designer) can be found in GreatPlains.chm file available in GP installation folder.

Hope this helps.
