Change value of variable in Buttons (or Macro)

Hello,

I want to insert three buttons, "previous month", "current month" and "next month". For getting the actual month I got a "MonthCounter" integer variable. But when I set it in the buttons the change in this variable is not done right away (That means I have to click twice to get the chage working).

So I thought of changing it with a macro but don't get it working.

Anyone any Idea?

Thanks

Peter

I think you didn't need variables for this. You could use OnSelect-Actions within the buttons, try something like this:

Button for current month with search-string:

= only({<Month = {"$(=month(today()))"}>} MonthCounter) // and +- 1 for next/previous month
