File won't open

When I try to open a file I am developing, I get the following error.

I have no idea what's causing this, but is there a way I can get around this and open the file so I can see what's going on? The problem may be in the Startup script.

Can you just open FileMaker, no database from the application folder?  Then open the script debugger, then open your file.  You can probably halt the script before the error, finish opening the file, then fix the problem.

Hi John, Steve has provided a method to get to the file using the Debugger.

IIUC, do you get the Login Dialog when opening the file?If not, hold down the Shift Key when opening the file and you should get the User ID and Password Dialog. Enter your  information, if no luck, then try User ID: Admin and Password: Admin.

BYW,  new files will default to the Password of admin
