Thanks for the leads, Jonathan. I did my best to make the 1st
one work, but the best I could get was something that would
highlight each newly selected record but not UNhighlight the
previously selected ones. Obviously, there's some trick involved
in refreshing the global variable that tracks the current
record, and I couldn't get the hang of it.
As to the script-trigger version, there are just too many
ways of navigating from 1 record to another for me to want to
script all the various possibilities, so I just passed on this
one.
I appreciate the effort to help, but I'm surrendering for now
and will live without the enhanced highlighting. This is just
way harder than it has any reason to be. I have submitted my
hope for a "Get ( ActiveRecordID )" function into the FMI
"requested feature" suggestion box, so maybe sometime in the
future there'll be a way of accomplishing this objective in a
more user-intuitive fashion.
