IWP & Get (ApplicationVersion)

[Adam McCabe]

I have a database that should use Get (ApplicationVersion) to determine if the client is the WPE or not, as many have suggested here.

However, when I access this DB via IWP, it says my client is FMP with [FullAccess] privileges.

The DB is hosted on FMSA 8 on a Win 2K3 SP1 box. What gives?

So...

Apparently my script wasn't working since I had web-incompatible Open File steps outside my Get (ApplicationVersion) If statement.

I threw the incompatible steps inside the client check and it works as advertised.

Just a note for other newbies such as myself who stumble upon this thread in the future: if you execute a script that has a web-incompatible script step, the script terminates immediately, and gives no error message. Be sure to check the "indicate web-compatibility" box every time you use ScriptMaker if you are doing web development, as is mentioned several times in the documentation.
