Re-Login
Purpose
Allows the user to log in to the database using a different account and password without closing and
reopening the file.
Format
Re-Login [Account Name: <account name>; Password: <password>; No dialog]
Options
Perform without dialog prevents the Open <filename> dialog box from displaying when the script
step executes. This dialog box requires the user to manually enter an account and password (or edit
information already displayed in the dialog box) to open a database file. When Perform without
dialog is selected, FileMaker
Pro uses the account and password information that is stored with the
script step, or generates information from calculations when the step executes.
Click Specify to display the “Re-Login” Options dialog box, where you can set the following options.
• Account Name is the name of the account to be authenticated. You can enter literal text or
click Specify to create a new account name from a calculation.
• Password is the password for this account. You can enter literal text or click Specify to
create a new password from a calculation.
