Using IWP, does anyone know if it's possible to perform a Duplicate Record script step? If yes, how can that be accomplished? Thanks!

You are strongly advised against using any "script" step in a browser solution backed by FileMaker. FileMaker's single-threaded engine cannot handle near-simultaneous requests for scripts, a very real possibility in the multi-user environment of the web. FileMaker is aware of this problem. They claim that version 5.5 is multi-threaded, but before you take their word on it and pay for an upgrade which probably does not solve the problem you probably would be well advised to investigate further. So far no one who is using 5.5 has posted that the "multi-thread" of 5.5 allows scripts to be safely run.

The script problem has been widely discussed on the cdml forum.

Thanks, I'll look into the CDML forum. BTW, how are you feeling?
