Hiya
I need a script that will open all the FileMaker files in a specified folder logging in with specific credentials. I've written the Applescript shown below however I'm still being prompted for a username and password despite explicitly scripting it in and I get no errors from the script...
Script is below:
You might ask why I want to open these files like this - there's a good reason! We're converting our fp5 databases to fp7 and to get the freshest set of data into our newly tweaked and fixed fp7 files we convert the fp5 files into fp7 format and import the data across...
Thanks All!
