Problem with filemaker new record getting script

Featured Replies

  • Newbies

Hello guys,

I am a noob in Filemaker and I am doing a simple accounting program. It works fine locally but whenever I turn on network sharing and go to another computer to test it the new record getting script which should give new number each time just doesn't work (it works fine locally though) and another thing it asks for some kind of confirmation on the left and I really don't know whats going on. I am attaching a screen shot for your reference.

There might be some sort of common reason that the script I am using is just not working in network environment. I am stuck here. Any help will be appreciated. Here is a screenshot of the script:

If you guys need anything else please let me now.

Nikolay, welcome to the forums.

Your script does not make any sense to me. Can you please describe what you expect it to do?

You say, "which should give new number each time." Do you understand the use of number fields set to auto-enter a serial number? That is, FM already has a built-in method of creating unique record IDs.
