Two naive questions from a new user of ScriptMaster Plug-in for Filemaker:

1) Why can't I "register" most of the modules? They'll all "evaluate" correctly, but only a few modules allow me to register them. For the others (including the StockQuotePrice module that I'm particularly interested in), I get a pop-up message box saying "You cannot register this function, because it will not compile: java.lang.illegalArgumentException: Invalid parameter name ": parameter names can only contain alphanumeric characters and underscores". FYI, I'm running FileMaker Pro 7 on an iMac G5 under OS 10.5.8 ("Leopard"), with Java Runtime Environment 1.5.0_22.

2) Why won't ScriptMaster.fp7 open correctly? It opens, but rather that appearing in "tabloid" format, it appears in "portrait mode," with all the text boxes overlapping one another [see attached screenshot]. At first, I suspected that there was a problem with the file, so I downloaded a fresh copy but got the same result. Then, assuming that the problem must be with my copy of Filemaker 7, so I uninstalled it, reinstalled from scratch, and applied all the appropriate updates from the Filemaker website, but, again, I got the same result!

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I've checked in to this and I don't think that FileMaker 7 supports tabs, which is why you're seeing such a strange set of layouts. This may be interfering with some of the scriptmaster functionality as well. Scriptmaster should be functional with FileMaker 7, but you may not be able to use the demo file to register the modules. You can still register the modules using the RegisterGroovy function (which is the best way to do it, anyway) so the plugin should still be usable for you if you have any modules you like.
