Hi Peter,
that didn't work, there is no difference if I try to open the filemaker db with filemaker or the finder.
@Malcolm: I have tried your advice, too. But filemaker or the finder didn't open the file. Then the Loop from your routine starts, but the time runs out without opening the file. After this my seconds script starts and produce the error.
Thx and regards,
Mirko
