Description
Imports a file or a reference to a file into the current container field. If you do not specify
a target field, then you must click in a field or use the Go to Field script step before
performing this script step. If you do not specify a file to insert, FileMaker Pro displays a
dialog box where the user can select a file.
If there is no active container field on the layout where the script is being performed,
Insert File returns an error code that can be captured with the Get(LastError) function.
Examples
Go to Field [Last Correspondence]
Insert File ["My_Letter.doc"]
Update Link (Windows)
Format
Update Link [<table::field>]
Options

Web compatibility

Description
Updates the OLE link in the current container field. The manual or automatic link is
updated. If the field does not contain an OLE link, then Update Link does not return an
error code.
In addition to using the Update Link script step to update both automatic and manual
links in your database, automatic links are updated when an OLE object
is activated with
a Go to Field script step with Select/perform on, or when the print option Update all
Links before printing is used.
Example
Enter Browse Mode []
Update Link [Table1::Spreadsheet]
