Can anyone help a poor frustrated boy out of a corner? I need to save a preview of a Report as a static web page that other people in the office can book mark and view without going to filemaker.

Is there a way to write a script that can update this static page? Eg copy the report and either paste it into, say a web document made in word. Or or overwrite a jpeg or other image file that is referenced in a static web page?

Sure there must be a simple answer to this one. (LOL)

Hallo stranger,

I don't think you can solve this totally with FM.... (but i maybe wrong)

2 years ago i solved it the following way:

Download AutoIt and install.

Create a script which shows the data in preview mode and starts an autoit-script.

This AutoIt-script does the following:

Control C ??? Copies the preview in FM to clipboard

Start a graphical editor (e.g. Paint Shop Pro...)

Control V : copies the clipboard-picture into PSP

Save the JPG to where you want.

Close PSP

That's it..., end of script...

For details about scriptsteps of AutoIT: It's well documented in the download.

regards from the Netherlands....
