Halt current script and open another

[WallFilm]

Hello

I have a script sequence as follows

go to Layout A

go to field A

pause

paste

go to field B

pause

paste

go to field C

pause

paste

I paste various Items text and pictures

I have several cut-paste steps

However while the order of fields and pasting is always the same at times I do not have enough data to paste.

Is there a why to halt the script not clicking the "Cancel" button and add a script step to open another script?

Something like

if "cancel"

perform script B

end if

thanks a lot but I couldn't find an answer so far in google

Regards

Button Dialog.pdfwhen you create a button to run your new script set it to halt the current script. See Attachment

It's a pretty excepted guideline when developing in FileMaker, never to use copy and paste.

If you need to copy somthing set it to a variable

Set Variable [ $name; Value:Table::Name ]

Instead of paste use set field

Set Field [ Conatacts::Name ; $name ]

WallFilm,

My impression is that your entire approach could benefit from some redesign. If you'd explain what you're doing (the goal/requirement), we can offer, perhaps, a better design/structure/interface.
