Importing records to many databases w/ one script

Hi,

I'm relatively new to scripting - and desperately trying to create a script in my main database that would import records (in the background) into 5 separate related databases from 5 different files.

The problem is that when in the main database, the "Import Records"- script command only allows to import records into the main database. Among other ideas, I've tried an "Open" (related database)-command before "Import Records"-step, but despite that the script is stubbornly trying to import the records only into the main DB.

I'm probably trying to do this in a fundamentally wrong way - I'd really appreciate if someone could point me into right direction.

Your script in the main file has to call another, external script in every of the five related files.

To do that:

Thanks a lot. Worked perfectly.
