Should have figured this out by now!!

I've been working with LiveCode for a few months now and there is one major thing I can't figure out, how do you share/use subroutines across objects and across cards? I have 3 buttons on a card, and I would like the data on all the fields on the card to be saved at the end of each "object" completi...

We need a way to open and close the door on the drives remotely, we can handle the remotely part, but not the opening and closing part (in live code). It is for use in Elementary schools with PC's. (We handle it...

Re: Accessing FileMaker Pro Databases

Oh forgot to mention, we are a Mac/Apple Shop.

Can we still use ODBC? Know I used to use ODBC back in the Day when we used Access and VisualBasic (over a decade ago!).

Thanks

Accessing FileMaker Pro Databases

Can LiveCode access FileMaker Pro data sources directly? And if so does anyone have example code? Need to find, read, edit and save (found) records. Would like to use LiveCode as a frontend to FileMaker databases without having to convert and export records. Thanks for any comments on the matter! ~D...

Re: How do you execute an AppleScript from within LiveCode

Thanks for the quick reply...

Boss wondering when this project will be done!

Which quotes do I remove, can you link me to a correctly formatted example? Passing parameters to applescript, haven't found LiveCode examples.

Thanks, again

How do you execute an AppleScript from within LiveCode

.. At a dead end here, no idea where to go. Wrote a live code program to gather information from a user, when then is supposed to pass data to an applescript. Running the script on its own, returns the correct results (the computer binds to AD). Spent at least a day getting the bugs out of the apple...

Re: Issue with DataGrid, they don't like me!

Thanks,

The data dictionary is wonderful, if not hard to find. Saving it in safe place!

So why isn't the data populating the data grid after compiling? Is the new code any better, should it not work correctly?
