Export Scriptmaker Scripts?

[Tony Thomas]

Is this possible? I have a development copy of a database I'm using to write and test scripts. Once everything is working the way I want it to, I'd like to move the script over to the database that's in production. I can't figure out how to do this. Can I?

Go to your production database. Open Scriptmaker. Choose "Import" check your development db and choose which scripts you want and it will be imported.

FileMaker Advanced lets you copy/paste entire scripts or script steps. In your case I think you'd want to copy the script steps from the test file and paste them into the script steps in the production file.

Since I have only worked with Advanced I didn't realize that feature was not available in other versions. Sorry to misinform.

The import scripts functionality is available in FM pro also. The Advanced product allows portions of scripts (steps) to be copied and pasted between scripts.

Hope this helps to clarify,

So then my reply was essentially correct. He wants to bring over from his development db his tested scripts. And these can be imported whether in 8.* or 8.* Adv?

(I'm not worried about being right just not being wrong. I hate to give incorrect information)

Yes,

In versions 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0 & 8.5.

Thanks everyone. I'm still putting the finishing touches on the script, but I'll import it into the production database once I'm confident it does what I want.
