mikegfy Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Is there any way to use a variable in the pathname of the file i'm going to import? And if I can't, I can make a windows script that will rename the file to something before importing, but how can I get the variable from filemaker to my windows script so that it knows which file to rename? Also, i'm using fm7, so if this is already a feature in 8 or above, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenton Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Yep, it is a feature of 8+. It's a new script step called Set Variable. There's a bunch of posts here to show how to use it. Well worth the upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikegfy Posted May 14, 2007 Author Share Posted May 14, 2007 (edited) Ok, thanks. I'll look into an upgrade. In the meanwhile, the export field contents script should work. Edited May 14, 2007 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
