" I recently posted a little file that had a Loop to create multiple Accounts..."

Could you point us to it? Where did it go?

Here's a link to the file (hopefully):

I've since decided that the Loop to create multiple Accounts is superfluous, unless you have more than 20; because you can just click a button to do them one at time; it's very fast. For 4000 it'd definitely be worth it :-)

Each file needs the set of 3 scripts: Create Account, Reset Account, Delete Account (I'm not bothering with Disable/Enable at this point; you can just Delete/Create).

You can import the basic scripts from file to file, but the new table::field format means that you end up having to retarget most fields; (relationship::field) imports with no problem though, as long as the TO's (2) are named the same.

One limitation to all this Account scripting is that, for security reasons, you can't Get(AccountNames), so you don't know if any particular account exists yet or not. That's why the ErrorCapture(On) for Reset and Delete. Then it doesn't really matter.

Hey, Thanks, Fenton! I got the zip.

What programs can retrieve my password? I have fm7 file that I was dev scripts that change the password automatically based on todays date and now can't figure out how to open it.

Please tell me how to do it!

Where?? I need one of those to open my under development solution that changed the password based on todays date. Now I can't open it!

Manny. Sorry. No one can open it except you. It's one of the features of FileMaker 7. They can't even open it.

You used a script to change the master password? I never have done that; and I guess you're finding out why it's dangerous. Perhaps I should redo the template to block that. Try hard to remember what you did. Remember the account name must be correct, and the password is case-sensitive.
