Hi all,

I have a multi-file solution that I'm trying to write a Re-Login script for. All files have the same user accounts in them, so when a user logs into the Interface file, all other files are logged into also.

But when the script (in Interface file) runs the Re-login step, only the Interface's current user is updated. Can anyone offer a good solution on how to change current user in all files when the user re-logs into the interface.

Thanks in advance!

You'll have to run a similar re-login script in all the files, triggered by the main re-login script.

Also check for errors as each script executes to make sure the user has indeed re-logged-in in all files.

Thanks, Wim.

Can you offer any explanation as to why FileMaker 8 handles Re-logins differently from Logins? I would think that they should behave similarly.

When FM forces a file open it will hand over the credentials from the file that forced the other one open.

On a re-login the other files are already open so they must be explicitely logged in with different credentials. The whole point of a relogin is that the files are not closed and opened again.
