- This plug-in allows you to run a FileMaker script when you exit a field.

I have tried getting feedback from the author but he is not responding to my 
e-mails!

I have just downloaded this and tried it out, these are my observations:

Tried it on a blank file 1 field and it works every time!

Tried it in an existing database with a lot of fields and I noticed the
following:

1) It did not trigger on exit, only when I clicked outside the field ie if
it went to another field automatically then it did not trigger until I
exited a field!

2) It did not work more times than it did but I could not see why that was!
I am using FM Developer 6

I tied it on a variety of field types, I set it to trigger regardless of the
change!

Anyone got any experience of this?

Ernie

I have never had a problem with this plug-in.  What calc or method are 
you using to trigger it?

I tried that plug briefly, found EventScript (also free) to be much more 
powerful. Run a script on entry, on exit, whatever.

One thing I have been having fun with is creating menus from pop-up lists.

And, the author is responsive.

Thanks Guys!

I have it working now! 

But I believe EventScript is only available for FM7.  The original 
question was in regard to FMD6.

Yup, you're right. Overlooked that.
