ILEMAKER PRO SCRIPT STEPS REFERENCE 231
Open Script Workspace
Purpose
Opens the Script Workspace window.
Format
Open Script Workspace
Options

Description
This script step is the same as choosing Scripts menu > Script Workspace, or File menu >
Manage
> Scripts.
Note Once an Open Script Workspace step is performed, FileMaker Pro halts execution of the
current script. This prevents unexpected conditions from occurring if the currently running script is
edited.
Example 1
Displays a custom dialog box that asks if the user wants to manage the database's scripts, and
opens the Script Workspace.
Show Custom Dialog ["Do you want to manage database scripts?"]
If [Get ( LastMessageChoice ) = 1]
Open Script Workspace
End If
