Stan, when you Manage Access Privileges, look at the Custom option
for Record handling. You can set it to allow deletion of all
records. Or, set the same Record Privileges to it's loosest setting,
depending on how much protection from other things it needs.

Is the Run-With-Full checked in the script that the
Delete-All-Records command is in? If it is a sub-script you have to
enable it in that script as well.
Just grasping at straws here. Obviously.
Did you step through the script to make sure that you are on the
right layout with the correct found set? It may be a prior script
step that is causing it to fail.

Subject: Delete All Records Not Working
Hi all
I have a long FileMaker script that executes a "Delete All Records" script.
The script works fine when I trigger it with my Full Access privilege set.
When I trigger it as a typical user with no privileges to delete records,
the script fails at that point. I suppose this makes sense, but how can I
over ride this protection for a typical user?
I have "Run script with full access privileges" checked, but seems to do
nothing.
Thanks for your advice.
