April 16, 200322 yr 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. Evan
April 16, 200322 yr 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.
April 16, 200322 yr 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.
April 17, 200322 yr 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.
