Running a script automatically 3 times a day

Featured Replies

How do I have a script run x number of times a day. This is in filemaker 9, importing via ODBC to update our parts list. I know how to have a script pause a certain number of minutes and then continue but I want to it to do this in the background.

Thanks,

Caroline

I think and may be corrected but this can only be achieved by using FM Server.

Gat a "robot" machine running FM Pro. Create a FMP database that runs the necessary script when it opens, and then closes itself when done. Use an OS-lever task scheduling application to open this file when ever it's needed.
