| Hi all,
I've done a fair amount of FileMaker scripting in the last few years, I rarely run into problems that I can't fix.
My current issue I solved by changing my code entirely (I did it with FileMaker commands instead), which has probably made it more solid anyway. But the issue raised some questions that I thought would be worth asking..
When running an applescript within a FileMaker script, are all commands asynchronous?
My problem was that an old Pentium MacMini seemed to cause my script to crash when switching from one layout to another and showing all records...
Here's a basic model of the script..
tell application "FileMaker Pro" tell database "contacts" tell front window tell current record set strName to cell "name" end tell -- ### these next two lines seemed to take place after the error go to layout "B" show every record -- ###
-- this line would error, because the record was not currently in the found set (the "show every record" command had not run) show (every record whose cell "name" = strName) end tell end tell end tell
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Wayne |
