I included the hide toolbar as part of a "Open" script for when the database is opened. But when a related database is opened from within the main one, the toolbars come back. I included the hide toolbars in the related database "Open" script, but this does not seem to help.

Is there anything I can do about this? Or is this something that the Developer version of Filemaker is needed for?

You can try Allow Toolbars [no] if you havn't yet.

Sometimes its the simplest things taht get me. Are you sure you have all the other files preferences set to automatically run your Open script upon starting?

One solution I've found to any of this is to create a sub script that performs some essential operations in the begining of each script. Than, in every script, the first line is, "Perform Subscript:__.."

My subscript that I include goes like this:

Enter Browse Mode []

Allow User Abort [Off]

Set Error Catpure [On]

Allow Toolbars [Off]

Toggle Status Area [Hide]

If ["Status(CurerntModifierKeys)=2"]

Show Custom Dialogue ["Data Format Concern", "Your CAP LOCK key is ON Please turn if OFF"]

End If
