I have a very basic calendar file and a related date file. The date file has a Menu layout and a list layout. The Menu layout has a button "Get Date List" that calls a script to go to the Calendar file. From there, you click on a date that calls a script "Display Date List" which will bring you back to the date file and go to a list layout for the date selected. This layout has the "Menu" button on it so the user can start over. When I start from the menu, go to the calendar, and click a date it appears to work. However, from the list if I then click "Menu" and start over using a different date, I return back to the Menu. It does work when running FileMaker.

I hope this is clear enough. What am I missing?

IWP has issues chnaging layouts between multiple files. I don't remember for sure, but I think each script that changes layouts needs to use the Select Window script step.

IMHO: when doing IWP, put everything in one file.

I have used the commit record and select window to no avail. Oh well, back to the drawing board for alternatives.

Still don't understand why multiple files would effect IWP. Since I'm new at IWP and haven't read anything to discurage this practice, it is proving quite a challenge.

Thanks for your reply

> Still don't understand why multiple files would effect IWP

It is affected because in the normal client each file would have its own window, but in IWP all files share one window.

Perhaps it was the Open File script step that was needed? Wish I could remember how we solved this at my last job...
