Sound file played when a count reaches a predefined value.

We have gotten a sound file to play using an add on program and combining a button with a script based on predefined value. However, when the sound file plays filemaker pro ceases functioning until the sound file ends.

So we really have two problems with this:

1. we don't want to use a button

2. filemaker pro ceases functioning until the sound file ends.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Perhaps you may be able to use a webviewer with an HTML page that plays the sound upon load...

*Edit - Oops web viewer wasnt introduced until FM8.5 I didnt see that you were on FM8.
