Control script steps

Control script steps control the progression of the script by letting you tell FileMaker Pro exactly what to do when and if specific conditions occur.

Use these script steps to:

•	call scripts and sub-scripts

•	pause and resume a script, based on defined conditions

•	conditionally perform script steps using if/then/else logic

•	stop a script before it's finished, if a specific condition is met

•	create loops that repetitively carry out a sequence of steps in a script, until a condition is met

Note  When you perform a script that uses the Get(LastError) function with control script steps, the following control script steps do not clear the last error condition reported by FileMaker Pro: If, Else, Else If, End If, Loop, Exit Loop If, End Loop, Exit Script, and Halt Script.
