cp Posted March 21, 2002 Share Posted March 21, 2002 I have a question about running scripts on a schedule using FileMaker Server. From what I can see, it seems that FileMaker Server will only run AppleScripts on a schedule. I need to write an AppleScript that will run a script within a database. FileMaker server will then activeate this AppleScript on a regular schedule, I hope. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'd really like ideas on writing the AppleScript Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkarBje Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 Example: tell application "FileMaker Pro" with timeout of 10000 seconds open {alias "Macintosh HD:Desktop Folder:YOUR DataBase:DATABASE-NAME"} with password "*****"(if you have a password) do script "SOME_SCRIPT" quit end timeout end tell tell application "Finder" open {alias "Macintosh HD:Desktop Folder:FileMaker Server"} end tell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
