First off ... thanks for all the good suggestions. You all nearly echoed my efforts to track down the problem, however it was something entirely different and quite obvious.

The real question is: "What happens when something is working perfectly one day and then decides to stop working the next (without modifying anything)?"

It should have hit me right away that if I didn't change anything then there must be a problem with the file. Sure enough I recovered the file and everything is working just fine. Now I must restore from a backup and I'll be back to square 1!

Hi all...

I am getting so frustrated I am about to put my fist through the monitor. I have a script that wasn't working, then it started working, and now it's not working again. It all boils down to this statement:

create new record at layout "aeCreateMasterList" of database "Upgrader.fp5" with data {"1", doImport, doSerialUpdate, doReplace, fileName}

The layout "aeCreateMasterList" contains the five fields that are used in this statement. For some reason it is setting the data based on layout 0. The data is being filled in the field creation order and not according to the fields that are actually on this layout. I have tried specifying the layout by ID and by index to no avail. The only thing that will work is the current layout, but that means that I have to display the layout and this is NOT a user layout.

It was working just fine ... what could have happened?
