Any ideas ??
First, provide the scripts more memory then default of 200kb if they are
running as stand-alone applications (use command-i and then select memory
where it says General Information).
For timeing out problems, add in a line to reset the time-out values:
with timeout of 780 seconds -- 13 minutes to complete (up for longer)
-- do whatever scripting
end timeout
For FileMaker Pro, try placing the search within a try block and see if that
corrects the problem.
Try
-- do the search
on Error
display dialog "the search went bad!"
end try
Best Wishes,
