A table cannot be imported into itself

Featured Replies

When I run the script "Flag Enrollment Records & Import into Students" I get the following error:

"A table cannot be imported into itself"

Cannot seem to figure out where the problem is in the script. Please advise. Thank you.

StudentList.zip

StudentSchedule_FmForum_Aug23.2012.zip

Your attachment only contains an Excel spreadsheet. There are no FileMaker files and therefore no script to evaluate.

I attached the sample database. The data is under the enrollment table. The script is in the database. Should I have attached it a different way? Please advise. Thank you.

No file?

Ok that is where I am really confused now. The file that says is missing is the name of the zip file I attached. If you download StudentSchedule_FMForum_Aug232012.zip and open it you will get a form view layout with out any data. I go to the Enrollment layout and then run the scirpt "Import & Clean" this is suppose to biring in the data from the EXCEL sheet that is attached. "Then i run Flag Enrollment Records and Import into Student."

This is where is the error come up and says that the file "StudentSchdule_FMForum_Aug232012.zip cannot be found. That is the name of the database that I zipped. I am baffled. ??

Ok, I went in the script and found that I need to put the filename of the database in the Import Filename. I specified for this database to the the file. But when I zip it and run it, it is gone and I get the same error. I will work on it somemore. Has to be the way I am trying to fill that script part.

Please use a new Reply when you upload the next file so that it won't be confusing to those working with you.

Thanks,

Lee
