Sorry it took so long to get back on this.  I just assumed it would work since 
it seems so logical, but it does not.  No errors, just no data showing up in my 
temporary field.  I also tried LENGTHC($field$) and that didn't work either.  
Just stays blank.

Any other suggestions?

Do a setfields from the current record into a 0 length hidden char field, then 
run a != $NULL$ against that.

Subject: Run If check for a Diary field

**
Hope this isn't TOO much of a silly question, but I can't seem to figure it out.

I want to display more of an indicator that there is data in a Diary field than 
the built-in "there is writing" or "there isn't writing" in the little book 
icon.  Using 'Diary field' != $NULL$ doesn't work in the Run If check - it 
always resolves that it's Null.  Is there some way to determine that there is 
data in a Diary field?
