Scripts greyed out

[Steve N]

The scriptmaker menu is greyed out and any button that uses a script will not work. Also the import menu is greyed out.

This behavior started after I reverted to a back up file.

I reverted to a back up because every computer crashed when I went to a certain record. (by crashed I mean sat there with a spinning globe of death) After going to the back up the corrupted record was gone and crash problem solved.

My temporary solution is to move the file off the server and host without a server. All scripts work ok under those circumstances.

I have not yet set up my security so everyone, even guest have full access.

I have solved my problem, it was permissions not set correct.

The datebase had different permisions than the live file, so when I moved the backup to the live folder the permissions were not right.

I did not suspect permission because the only thing afffected was import and scripts. I was able to add/edit/delete records, tables, fields and so on.

Hipe this helps someone else.
