Slobey Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Have you tried the "Send Event" script step. It will open external files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aholtzapfel Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 (edited) A neat thing about calling an external file or application from a filemaker script is you can put a pause in the script right after the send event and this will pause your filemaker script until filemaker regains focus(filemaker becomes the active window again). For this to work: The Send Event option "bring target application to forground" must be selected. The pause must be set to a Duration of 0 secs Edited October 4, 2005 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
