Script to run once, when database opens

[chris7of9]

Seems a simple enough question, but cant see how to do it:

where do I place a script that I want to run only when the database is initially opened - say, goto layout x, last record and verify integrity of database.  So while User switches from one layout to another, when they come back to layout x, this script does NOT run again.

Environment: Windows 10, Filemaker 16

TIA for any suggestions.

You want to go to File…Options…Script triggers, and attach your script to the OnFirstWindowOpen script trigger.

Thanks - As usual, I just couldn't remember or figure out the KEYWORD to be able to locate this in the help file.  Sorted now.
