Hello,

FMP Dev 6.0v4, Mac OS 10.4.4

In my main solution I have a simple FMP script that preforms an AppleScript if Status(CurrentPlatform) = 1 or -1:

tell application "Timer"

	open "Timer.clm"

end tell

Where "Timer" is a FMP 6.0v4 runtime file and "Timer.clm" is the related runtime FMP file with a custom extension.

Basically this is meant to open the separate FMP runtime "Timer" from my main solution.

It works perfectly before I turn my main solution into a runtime.

Once the main solution is compiled however, the script returns the following error message:

got an error: Data is being accessed by another user, script, or transaction. (Error -10011).

Where is the name of my main solution file.

The "Timer" runtime does not open. The script returns this error no matter what.

Any idea ?

Thanks to all

Cheers

Hello,

Here I am answering my own post again :

After some more testing I found a way to make it work, not sure exacly why it does work, but it does.

So in order for an AppleScript inside a runtime to be able to open another runtime without getting that pesky error message:

- The extensions of the two runtimes should be different

- There should be a single copy of the runtime being openned by the AppleScript on the computer, including in the trash.

Those are assumptions but changing the extension and making sure there was a single copy of the runtime being called by AppleScript solved my problem.

Hope it may help someone else...

Cheers
