Script problem with multi-user

Featured Replies

This script (see attachment) runs from a button placed on each row of student records displayed in listview. The script logs the attendance for that student for that day.

This script performs very well in a multi-user environment on FMS adv where all 40 clients are using FM9 (windows) as long as only one person is using the script and entering attendance. But when additional users try to enter attendance for their students there is a delay (hourglass) of 2-3 minutes until the script is complete and the listview redraws. Users are entering attendance for their own students so there are no instances where users are entering attendance for the same student.

Is there something in the script that causes this delay when more than one user is entering attendance? Is listview the problem? I’m perplexed and not sure why this is happening. Any help is much appreciated. lpm

Near the very end of the script I see:

Perform Script[“Mark Duplicates [GetNthRecord]”]

The name raises a red flag for me. I'd start there.
