Errors: An unsupported operation was attempted

[Karen1958]

Am posting this here because it only happens when I run scripts. I'm assuming my DB is corrupted, but don't know what to do about it, exactly. Is it only the scripts which are corrupted? Help!

Can you narrow it down to a particular script step that is causing this? If you have FileMaker Advanced, use script debugger, otherwise, you can insert pauses or show custom dialogs into the script you suspect is causing the error and eventually narrow it down to which exact step it is happening at.

Actually, the above assumes that the error is consistent and reproducible. If it's not, then testing on another computer/hosted/not hosted/etc. might help narrow it down.

P.S. I haven't seen this error before myself

Somehow my copy of FMP itself became corrupted. Couldn't even uninstall it w/o the disk.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled the program and this seems to have fixed the problem. Whew!
