Thanks for your reply, Tom, but this doesn't work. If I include Exit
Script as the first step in my go to main menu script, the computer
does just that--exits the script that is supposed to take the person
to the main menu--NOT the script that was midway to completion. So,
essentially, that step disables the Return to Main Menu button. If I
put the Exit Script step at the end of the script, it also does nothing.
Am I not understanding what you are suggesting? If so, sorry for
being dense and please try to explain what you mean a different way.

Sue,
In the Button Setup dialog for Perform Script you have 4 options
for what happens to any currently running script: Halt, Exit,
Resume and (the default) Pause. Sounds like the option you want for
your Main Menu button is "Exit".
cheers

Hi folks,
I continue to have some issues with a filemaker instant web
publishing set up and I think it may be due to users initiating
one script, then clicking on a button that executes a different
script to return them to the main menu before they have completed
all the steps in the script they started.
I can not seem to figure a way to ensure that if they click the
button to view the main menu, any in-process script is
discontinued and exited first or as part of the script that takes
them back to the main menu.
Can anyone suggest a solution? I suspect there must be an easy
way to do this, but I can't seem to figure it out. If I use the
exit script command at the beginning of my return to main menu
script, it exits that script. When I put it at the end of the
script, it still does not exit the partially completed script.
Thanks for any tips.
Sue
