I have a file with a startup script that I am trying to call from a vbasic script. Basically I am trying to open the file and perform a simple Show All Records script.

However, the startup script for the file performs a find, and when called via vBasic it performs the Show All Records script first, then the startup script.

Is there a way to open a FMP file externally and then somehow test to see whether it is fully loaded or not?

The file has at least a dozen related files that load as well, so initial startup takes quite a while and will vary depending on the speed of the computer. This means having the vbscript wait for a set amount of time will be frustrating to users with fast PCs and not long enough for users with slow PCs.

Many thanks
