VB and FM help

[Zeina]

basically I am trying to figure out all the filemaker functions available from "outside" filemaker so I can call them from VBA or VBS

In a nutshell: I want to write a vbscript to open and launch outlook from Filemaker (I am not using the sendmail function, because I create a temp field in outlook which will enable me to track the email ID and link it back to my filemaker DB) Now the problem is from my vb code, what filemaker functions are available? (without ASP since it will be running on multiple workstations where IIS is disabled)

is there a get field?

Thx

Have a look at the Send Message[ ] and Open URL[ ] script steps.

In VB open Object Browser and right-click to add a Reference. Search the Reference list for FileMaker. This attaches the necessary tlb file which docoments the interface. Also, check Help - ActiveX
