Issues with DB

[nab]

hi there, I just started using FM pro 6 about a week a go. I created a DB Now I want the key field to be an Auto number, so I go to the field options and set it to "serial NUmber" START 1 and incurment as by 1. This works fine we I use it in the browse mode, however when I go to I.E. to access the database this does not work. I tried this on two different computers the same issue. ALso I haveing the same problem with a script "I made a button that put the data auto in a given field", again this works fine in the Browse mode but when I go to I.E. or even Firefox the script does not work. Your help will be greatly appriciated.

thanks

IWP in FMP 6 has little support for scripts. FMP 7 is much better.

thanks Vaughan for your answer, so is there anyway around that short of upgrading to Ver. 7

thanks

The solution is to learn the limitations of IWP and design accordingly.

As you have discovered, IWP and the FMP client are two different interfaces with two different feature sets.
