Select All Pages with a "Pick From"

Post by ALW »

Is there a way to select all pages when you are using a query with "pick one or more from"? I have tried several different things and I cannot set it up so the user doesn't have to select each page of the results. Even when I do unlimited it still will not select them all at one time. Any suggestions?

I'm not sure on this, but try creating a query with no paging or limits. Use the query in the pick from i.e., PICK FROM MYQUERY...

I tried that but it still won't select them all - it will only select what it can view as you scroll down - the objects below aren't selected.

You should probably put this directly to support. It may be a limitation or maybe they can add an option for the select all function to select all records in the query.

If you are going to PICK every record then why would you want a PICK

Sometimes users want to do some filtering of a query, then select all of the filtered items. My users do this regularly in one app.

you can get around this irregularity by converting to a Custom Query, and having a 'selected' attribute serving as a flag.

my reply relates to the original Post, which does not mention filtering might be involved, Tom.
if you still want further details after knowing this, LMK.
