Ver. 8 scripting bug.

Featured Replies

Not sure if this has been mentioned here before. I spoke to someone at Filemaker and they didnt seem to be aware of this problem. As of 7.03 the Go to Related Record Script step requires you to select "Open new window" if you are relating to another file. However, if you are relating to another table within the same file it works fine. I remember having to go back and change all of my scripts when the 7.03 update came out because it killed a bunch of my scripts and it seems that it went un-noticed in releasing V8.0. I have a demo that demonstrates what I mean if anyone is interested. Anyone else notice this problem.

Thanks & Happy Holidays.

Hi Ron,

Thanks for pointing this change out. I would have been wondering what the heck happened too, and how to make it work as in the past.

I played with this change yesterday after your post, and notice that if you open a file that was created using v7 (using the steps that have been around since v3), it will works as in the past in v8. However, as you stated, it is when you are creating these files in v8 that it becomes a mystery, and I'll be darned if I can see where this change was documented. I guess I need to reread the release notes.

Thanks for sharing the information.

It's a new day, and it dawned on me that this has to be something simple if a v7 will work in v8.

I changed my GTRR box and it works like before.
