ScriptFire is a FileMaker 5-10 plug-in for Windows and Mac OS. This powerful plug-in lets
you schedule scripts anytime. Use ScriptFire to schedule scripts for hourly, daily, weekly,
monthly or even yearly execution including interval schedules. Control intervals and
schedules from your scripts. Open and close FileMaker databases based on schedules.
In addition, ScriptFire brings the power of script triggers to FileMaker 9 and earlier:
Have ScriptFire trigger your script to check user input after leaving a field or record.
Define events that trigger scripts when users access certain layouts or switch windows.

Leverage Advanced script scheduling and triggering in FileMaker 10 and earlier:
- Trigger scripts repetitively in a relative interval (e.g. every 5 minutes)
- Control schedules with start and end points
- Open and close FileMaker databases based on schedules
- Control computer power management out of FileMaker
In addition to the features above, ScriptFire brings the power of script scheduling and
triggering to FileMaker 9 and earlier:
