Hey what's up? You guessed it, another filemaker question. I'm not fully understanding Pause/Resume?

I have a Pause/Resume in one script and that script brings me to another layout to do some stuff.

Then I click a button that has a script and then I want it to resume back to my last script.

Instead the script just sits there and I have to click the script:continue button.

Is it possible to run a different script while another script is running and then resume back to that previous script?

I tried debugging but the Pause/Resume is confusing me. Please let me know if want to see my code.

Thanks,

Galen

Sure: Perform Script.

Galen asked ... then resume back to that previous script?

Actually, pause/resume within a script is just that ... it pauses/resumes THAT script. When you attach a script to a button to execute, you have an option to Exit, Halt, Pause and Resume. Attach your Resume there. In this way, when your second script finishes, control will be turned back over to the first script to resume whatever it needs to do. You will have to play with this to get it just right for what you need; I would have no way of specifying exactly how you should handle it without seeing your process. But (from attaching to the button) is where you want to handle this.

You can also just press <ENTER> in the layout to resume (in case your Status Area isn't showing).
