Hello to all… again!
Firts I would like to thank all of the developers who have help me out with my emails and I would also like to say that with out your help I would be several days maybe weeks away of finishing my development proyecto so with no further expanations… Thank you all!
Now… back to reallity!!! I am still stuck with what I think is the last bug in my coding so here goes the story.
As many other program FileMaker displays dialogs when an error comes out, when printing, when you make a page setup or when you create a Script with a “Show Dialog” scriptstep in it etc… The problem with this dialgos are that they block AppleScripts. I have even tryed Scripts as easy as the next one:
Tell application “FileMaker Pro”
Activate
end tell
Tell application “FileMaker Pro”
beep
end tell
Even a script as simple as thees will pause and wait for the application to responce and that is not only the problem the command that the applescript could be sending to the FileMaker Application will also stop and only when the dialog gos away the script will do its job. so my questions are:
1- Is there a way of pressing the enter key from an appleScript to remove this dialogs ? I have tried some key coding in my AppleScript but with no luck.
2- Is there a way of knowing that FileMaker is displaying a dialgo ? With this I could at least stop the script from sending an order to Filemaker!
I hope there is a solution for this!
Thank you all for your time!!!
