Statrup script to open two databases

Featured Replies

I am interested in opening two databases right away when FMP starts. How do I do that? I read the script maker options and they didn't have what I wanted.

Please advice.

Let me get this straight -- every time you open Filemaker you want these two files to open automatically?

Are you sure? 'Cause if you're opening up other unrelated files, this can get really annoying.

Create a "launcher" file that has a script that runs on startup (see Preferences - Document). The script would Open and/or run a script in the other files you want to open, then close the launcher file:

Open[a]

Open

Close[]

The launcher file should have the same passwords and groups as the files it opens.

Taking it further - using separate launcher files you can auto-enter different passwords for different user groups (developer, user,guest ..)

or open some files from a server, some locally.
