I have created a script with a "Show Message" step in File B which I am running via the external function in File A and I want the user to be taken to a layout in File B and then be shown the message after a find has taken place.

For some unknown reason the message shows in File A

My script is;

FILE A

Perform Script: External "File B" - Show Message

FILE B

Perform Find

If Status(CurrentFoundCount) >0

Go to Layout (Refresh)

Sort found records

Beep

Show Message

Can anyone help?

Check out the "Refresh Window" step and the "Bring to front" option.

Although the refresh option on Go To Layout does display the layout, it doesn't necessarily bring it to foreground.

Thanks for your reply. It seems to have done the trick.
