Refresh Window
Purpose
Updates the entire contents of the FileMaker Pro document window, including any related records.
Format
Refresh Window
Options
Select Flush cached join results to delete the results of queries for related records and cause
related records to be refreshed. Do not select this option if you know your script does not affect
related data, and if you want to minimize the performance impact of re-accessing related data
(particularly when sharing a database over a network).
Select Flush cached SQL data to delete the results of queries for related ODBC data source
records and cause related ODBC records to be refreshed. FileMaker Pro dumps the internal cache
and refreshes record data. Do not select this option if you know your script does not access ODBC
data.
Compatibility
This script step is also supported in web publishing and in a FileMaker Server scheduled script.
Originated in
FileMaker Pro 6.0 or earlier
Description
You do not need to select Flush cached join results in order to refresh the entire window.
This script step updates records (rows) in the current ODBC table.
