I just want to perform script and thats on backend.

What i did is with the help of "get(currenttime)" function and Loop, I succeed to get time after each second. i.e. it gets refreshed on every second.
This script is included in OpenScript.

But problem arises here is, it blocks user for other actions to perform or scripts to run.

Please if any one knows any solution on it, please convey.
(On Mac environment it is possible with the help of applescript
but on windows applescript donot work and I want it for windows environment )

System :
FileMaker Pro 8 adv
Windows 2000

 
A running script on Windows will block other users.
It's the basic for referential integrity and synchro.

Or you have to use a plug-in or use an external file to run your script.
The external file silution is only for one user, so the only solution, as far as I can see, not sure what your script is doing, is a plug-in.
