Using more than one window

[TKnTexas]

Since I can't install Filemaker at work, I develop my tools at home and convert to a runtime to use at work. I develop on my MacBook (OSX.5 and FMP8 Adv) and use on my XP Professional Dell at work.

I ventured into using a pop-up window. Point being I am entering invoices and need to tweak the vendor record. I click on a button and go to that vendor record. When I went to close it, there X was grayed out.

I opened the file on the MacBook. There I could close the Vendor pop-up window. Back on the XP I couldn't. I didn't see options to control it.

Is it a matter of the OS used or runtime vs full application?

I believe that the "close" button (the red x) is disabled in runtimes. So, just put a close window button on the vendor popup.

Also, on Windows, popup windows will resize the original window and not in a good way. You do not want to use Maximize on Windows. Stick with Adjust Resize to Fit.

Thanks ... I appreciate the response. I should have looked for a close window script step.
