January 13, 200520 yr Newbies This is so simple, I know it, but I have just been dorking out for like an hour unable to make it work and looking for advice here. Don't laugh, it's so stupid. I've got the email and a button already set up that I can hit anytime to send a certain email message to a small group of users. That's cool, but I want to automate it...ALL I want to do, so simply is: When we open Filemaker each day, I'd like the start-up script to find the set of records with "today's date" in a certain field and then auto-send an email. We have this short email set up to say "Reminder, this customer needs a callback today" bla bla. It's just internal, no biggie, and it's been working fine with the manually-triggered button. It's just getting Filemaker to do it by itself up on start-up that I can't seem to...uh... Someone get me going here in dorkland?
