Monday morning brain teaser:

I have a layout for Image Sources in the Image Record Maintenance Database.
Example of source types: book, serial, vendor, gift, etc.

There is a check box field for each source type - marked with an X. If the
source is a book, the book box is checked, etc.

As the data recorded for each type of source is different, there is a tab
for each source type that hold the pertinent data.

I wrote a script that will open the tab according to which source type field
that is checked. If "book" is checked, the book tab is on top. If "vendor"
is checked, the vendor tab is on top. This works great when going from a
different layout to the source layout via a button- say from the image
record or image order to the source.

But is there a way to trigger this script when simply browsing through this
one layout so that as the patron goes from record to record, the appropriate
tab is automatically appears without having to click on the tab?

I'm using FMP 8.5 on Max OSX.
