ByPass 'Specify Field Order for Export' ?

[evalesthy]

I am new to FileMaker and have just written my first script to export 11 fields from a larger database (by date range). My immediate problem is that every time I run the export (once a day) it asks me to "Specify Field Order for Export" which makes me reselect the 11 fields. Is there a way to automate this either by specifying the fields in the script or some other way?

My current script is:
Go to Layout ["export"]
Enter Find Mode [Pause]
Perform Find []
Export Records [No dialog]
Go to Layout [original layout]
Show All Records

Make sure you also check the Restore Export Order box. Without that being checked - it will ask you for the fields and the order.

Remember - the first time you create the script - there are not any stored setting (even if you check the remember box). So save the script - run it - then go back into the script. When you click OK to exit - it will prompt you to replace the saved information. Make sure you replace it.
