Window - Open Files

[Angus Cameron]

When I open a series of files I find that the majority are neither listed in the Window - Open Files listing nor the Window / Show Window (hidden files) listing. The only practical way to navigate between files is to minimise the one in view, select the other file I need and maximise it. Surely there must be an easier way than that? I wonder whether this is an error on my system or a shortcoming of Filemaker 9 Advanced?

Further to my comments above, I have realised that if I open files in the conventional way they appear in the Window / File List. I have opened up to 10 files successfully. However, if I use a script with a series of Open File steps (not minimised) the list stops after two files and sometimes after only one.I have tried recovering the third file in the series but that makes no difference. I have also tried a "refresh window" script step between each open but that also does not help.The files all open but without a reference in either of the two lists: Open or Hidden.
