Hi John,
Did you try to use the activation corner to deactivate the screen
saver? I don't know why setting the screen saver to "never" doesn't
work, since it's always working for me...

I have a script which adds data to filemaker pro databases (fp6).
With the growth of the script and increasing amounts of data to parse,
I am having a problem keeping it running to completion, because of
screen saver issues. Filemaker likes to be frontmost and as far as I
can tell the screen saver on my laptop coming on is the reason my
script reaches a point in execution then reports "filemaker pro got an
error, apple event timed out." I have tried to use system events gui
scripting to set screen saver to "never" but it doesn't seem to work.
Whenever I run the script, the screen saver eventually comes on and
the process times out.
Does anybody have a foolproof way to keep screen saver from activating
until the script is finished? Is there some reason that setting
screen saver to "never" doesn't work?
Thanks
John Fowler
