However, this is not likely to work well in FM7/FM8.
There is only one layout 0 for a FileMaker 7 file, and it is associated with
the oldest still-existing table. If you have a multi-table file, layout 0
won't work if you need a reference to some other table.
But in this particular thread, the user is on FileMaker 6 so layout 0 works
fine.
