Adam Dempsey Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 From a VB applicaion I call a Script within FileMaker which does an export. I would like to be able to know when the export has completed, so that the VB application can continue. I have looked at sending a DDE message in FileMaker so that VB can detect it but haven't managed to get it working, has anyone else ever tried this or got any other ideas?

Wim Decorte Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Ouch... forget about DDE. It's so dead even the skeleton turned to ashes. Check out the "scriptStatus" FM activex property. You can put your VB in a loop and check FM's script status. When it's done you can exit your loop and continue routine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
