Notification after print

[cterrell16]

  Is there a way to create some type of notification (Like a Popup box) after a script has printed something.

The script could show a custom dialog via the script step in FileMaker.

Or for Mac you can use User Notification functions in the MBS Plugin.

Error trapping might be an option too -  something like this:

Allow User Abort [OFF]
Set Error Capture [ON]

Page Setup [restore]
Print[]

If [Get(LastError) <> 0]
    Show Message['There was a problem Printing']
Else
    Show Message['Printing Successful']
EndIf

Ok,  I've got the custom dialog box to pop up.  My current issue is that I would only like it to pop up if the field i'm using has something in it.  If it's blank I do not need it to pop up.  How would I do that.  Using the if then i'm assuming.

YES!

Allow User Abort [OFF]
Set Error Capture [ON]

Page Setup [restore]
Print[]

If[not IsEmpty(yourField)]
   If [Get(LastError) <> 0]]
       Show Message['There was a problem Printing']
   Else
       Show Message['Printing Successful']
   EndIf
EndIf
