Description 
This script step is the same as choosing Scripts menu > Script Workspace, or File menu > Manage > Scripts.
Note  Once an Open Script Workspace step is performed, FileMaker Pro halts execution of the current script. This prevents unexpected conditions from occurring if the currently running script is edited.

Show Custom Dialog ["Do you want to manage database scripts?"]
If [Get ( LastMessageChoice ) = 1]
