Other files also have 'OPEN' scripts that automatically run when opened. Check them if NAMES_ is not the problem.

You can't get to scripts in ebase.102, but that's probably not the trouble. As delivered, it won't go looking for files other than ebase files, and it can't be modified. When opened, ebase.102 opens names_.102, which runs a script called "806-Open", which in turn calls a script named "820-Open All". It's possible that at some time in the past, a file was missing or damaged, and when asked, a user mistakenly pointed FileMaker at your huge file. The reference in the script got changed, and now it goes there every time. Log in to ebase with the master password, go to the home screen, select the menu item Scripts>Scriptmaker. Select the script "820-Open All" and click Edit. Scroll down and look for a step that opens your huge file. If there is one, delete it. If there isn't one, I'm outta ideas.... -- -- Dave Shaw H4 Consulting tel: 206-954-7526 fax: 206-625-1338 ------------------ Reminder to each recipient: To change your list account preferences, go to http://email.sparklist.com/scripts/lyris.pl?enter=support and enter the email address you used to subscribe to the ebase support list:: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- ebase - Relationship Management for Nonprofits, http://www.ebase.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------ Reminder to each recipient: To change your list account preferences, go to http://email.sparklist.com/scripts/lyris.pl?enter=support and enter the email address you used to subscribe to the ebase support list:: [email protected] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- ebase - Relationship Management for Nonprofits, http://www.ebase.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------
