Saved Finds

How to Scrip the Saved Finds
Need to find out how to capture the strings that appear in the FileMaker Saved Finds Menu Item, which will help when doing repetitive Searches.
There should be a Script that allows the user to select from a list of Saved Finds in a Drop Down Menu inside the Layout, unlike the regular list that appears under Records->Saved Finds->Recent Finds

See: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=%22script%22+%22saved+finds%22+%22recent+finds%22+%22filemaker%22&ie=&oe=

MS
Saved Finds only saves successful searches.
Request from FileMaker that they add unsuccessful searches to the Saved Finds List

How to run a Script before the File launches

Ask FileMaker: How to run a Script before the File opens up? 

For example, I want to enter Username and Password automatically, so the User doesn’t have to do this every time they open a file. 

As soon as you set password(s), FMP starts up with a password dialog. 

To prevent this you can automatically fill in (populate) a specified password in the document settings.

No dialog box appears.

If you want to log in with the non-standard password, you have to hold SHIFT (Win) or ALT (MAC) during opening the file.

The password-dialog-box will appear.
