FILEMAKER PRO HELP 1083
To return the file to its original state, perform a Close Window [] script step to close the open
window.
• Select Window can make visible a hidden related file if the script step is executed from
within the hidden file.
Example 1
Selects the Print Invoices window. If the Print Invoices window is not open, creates a new window
and goes to the Print Invoices layout.
Select Window [Name: "Print invoices"]
If [Get ( LastError ) = 112]
New Window [Name: "Print Invoices"; Style: Floating Document]
Go to Layout ["Print Invoices"]
End If

Options
• Click Specify to select which window you want FileMaker Pro to close. You can enter literal
text or click Specify to generate a name from a calculation.

matches all available FileMaker
