"run script with full access privileges" doesn't work!

Featured Replies

I'm stumped at present with the following issue.

I have setup a script to add comments to a worklog field adding a timestamp and account name prior to each entry.

I have created a secure worklog field that standard users have no access to and made this field 'not modifiable' by standard users. To enable standard users to add comments to this worklog I have created a secondary worklog entry field which combined with a script enters the aforementioned timestamp and account information and then copies and pastes the worklog entry field into the worklog.

This script has been setup with 'run with full access privileges' checked yet still does not allow modification of the 'worklog field by standard users until I give them full access to the worklog field which defies the point of the exercise!

I am running Filemaker Pro 9.0.3 and Server 9.0.3 with OS X 10.5.2 Leopard on both. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

From the help system....

The Run script with full access privileges feature only functions in the file in which the script is defined. This command will not override access restrictions on external files. For example, a script to delete records in File A that has the Run script with full access privileges option enabled will not delete records in an access-restricted external file File B.

Is the target field in an external file?

Yes I am aware of the scenario with separate database files but this is all in the same file and same table as well!

Thanks anayway.

It sounds like it should work the way you describe, so either something is missing from the description or there is a problem with your file/system. Why don't you post a small file demonstrating the issue, so we'll know.
