hi

i was just thinking. i have created a script that sends emails to all my contacts with the lastest news on my front. it does so by looping through all my contacts, send a new mail for every new contact. now, if the power goes out in the middle of me running this scrip, what would happend when i restart filemaker? would i have to rerun the entire script or would it continue wherever it got aborted? i wouldnt like to send the same mail twice, or rather i dont want my contacts recieving the same mail twice...

thanks

It definitley wouldnt continue where it left off, you could just mark as "sent" and when the script completes clear all the "sent" fields.

yeah, thought about that too, the problem is that im gonna be using diffrent levels of follow-up scripts, and i really dont want it to drop a level...

i know that its faroff, powerouts arent really thet frequent, but still...

I agree with OAM, and moved it here.

create a log table and create a record in there for each step that was successful. If something goes sideways you can always review the log.
