I am in the process of converting my Marina Management Solution from Filemaker 5.5 over to Filemaker 10. It is going quite well and Filemaker 10 Advanced is enabling a number features I have wanted to incorporate for some time now.

However, While reviewing a number of scripts I have noted what I feel is a most peculiar event. Where ever I have utilized the script step "Go To Record/Request/Page(First)" or "Go To Record/Request/Page(Last)"; Filemaker 10 has created an extra "Go To Record/Request/Page(First)" script step prior to my original script step. See Attachment.

What causes this and can I just delete the extra script step?

This is to address behaviour changes between FMP 6 and FMP 7+. For instance, in FMP 6 issuing a sort step sorts the found set *and* changes to the first record in the new sort order. In FMP 7 and later the sort step *only* sorts the records and focus remains on the same record. Hence to maintain the original FMP 6 function the go to first record step is added.

Whether the new script step can be removed depends on what the script does. You'll need to work it out yourself.
