Aero

I just created a solution that opens and closes many windows for importation and exportation to create stats files. When I run the scripts many times on a PC, I observe funy things. I sudently notice that the title bar of the main window has more and more "X" (where you click to close the window). It also has many window icons (the number of window incons = the number of "X"s on the right top corner). After a short while, the computer freezes and I have to restart the computer. Last time it did that, I lost and entire file. I use a plug-in called "xm2chart.fmx" to generate graphs. I wonder if it has anything to do with it? RD

Since the folder distribution is different when you install a runtime solution compared to installing a non compiled solution, I'm looking for a way to get my script to identify if it is a "Runtime" solution or a solution runing on the FMP application. Any idea?

After doing some testing, here is what I found. When you process as mentioned earlier when using a MAC client, FMP writes your export files in the FileMaker folder of the client's computer. When accessing the shared database from a PC client, FMP does not know where to write the export files unless you do the following. Create a conditional script based on the platform (Status CurrentPlatform) and redo all the export scripts on a PC platform and make sure you indicate to FMP to export the files to c>Program File>FileMaker. I use the FileMaker folder because it is what the FMP installer installs and this way I am almost sure this directory will be on all client's computer. Any one has a better idea?

I just instanlled a FMP solution on the client's server that runs on NT. The solution exports some FMP files. During the process the solution imports back the data from the same exported files. Now, I run this solution on a MAC FMP server and everything works fine. The only difference is that the exported files are automatically created on the guest's computer, in the FMP folder. Now here is the problem. When I run the same soution on my client's NT server, I get and error message where it says something like "Write protection error. Use another disk..." And on this error message the name of the file that can't be written is mixed with some stange caracters. How can I get this to work on the NT server? RD

I have tried that and it works great. Is there a way to use these functions to make a log that records every accees to a DB?

I want to use these functions to create a log of web activities by registering the name of the users on a separate file... Any idea how I could do it in FMP...

No I am usig the Instant one...

I have been trying to use the Web Companion External Functions... but no success. I have defined a calculation field with one of these funtion. But nothing happens when I access a database via my Web browser. Any suggestions??
