FMD 6 Looses Gobal Varibles?

Featured Replies

  • Newbies

I'm developing a plugin for FileMaker. It works fine in FMD7, however I am having some trouble with FMD6. There are several global variables that are accessed by a Get and Set functions one runs in Filemaker. In FMD6, however, these variables don't change. I'll run a function and set a variable to, say, 6, and the get will still return 0, the default initialized value. I don't understand why this is occuring in FMD6 but works fine in FMD7.

Does anyone know what's going on?

Thanks in advance

Couple of things:

1) Check that the global field *really is* global, and the data type is correct;

2) Try Exit record/Request after setting the global value.
