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? Curt A.

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? Curt A.
