Scripted Delete FmGo

[bcooney]

Since the "export with zero found count" trick is not supported on FMGo, is there an equivalent way to script the deletion of a file?

I use this all the time in fmgo 12 and 13. What doesn't work is the Export Field contents trick.

That's odd..when I select the Export Records script step, and select file type "FileMaker Pro", it shows NOT COMPATIBLE if I have iOS selected in Show Compatibility.

 

Edit: My goal is delete an old version of the FMGo file.

FileMaker Go can not export records to a FileMaker file in any situation. I set the file I want to delete in a variable and then as a file type I select tab-separated. As long as the variable is set to the FileMaker file, it will work using the tab-separated file type.

Oh, nice. Thanks.
