Matt Klein Posted December 7, 2002 Share Posted December 7, 2002 Does anyone know a way to tell if there is a Guest connected to a database that is Hosted by FileMaker Pro(not FileMaker Server)? I know, I know...using FileMaker Server would solve this problem. But, I have a client who just won't spend the $$. I tried running a script with Error Capture On that tried to access the Define Fields, but the first thing that comes up is that FileMaker is waiting for a Guest to disconnect. Then, it doesn't return an error. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobWeaver Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 Use user count status function: If [status(CurrentUserCount)<2] * No other users, so do your stuff here End If Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Klein Posted December 8, 2002 Author Share Posted December 8, 2002 Thanks again Bob! I didn't even realize there was a status function for counting the number of users. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaughan Posted December 8, 2002 Share Posted December 8, 2002 In the file (on your server) choose the Sharing command from the File menu. It will tell you how many guests are using the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Klein Posted December 9, 2002 Author Share Posted December 9, 2002 Thanks Vaughn. That's another great method that I have probably seen a million times and for some reason didn't think of it. Well, that's what makes this forum great...Hundreds of FileMaker thinking minds all in one place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
