How to Run a FileMaker Script Using Visual Basic

Launch Visual Basic.

Click "Project" along the top of Visual Basic and choose "References" and "Add Type Library."

Click the checkbox near "FileMaker Pro Type Library" and choose "OK."

Call the FileMaker script with this code, according to the FileMaker official website:

"Dim FMProApp as FMPro70Lib.Application

CreateObject("FMPRO.application")

Dim FMProDocs, FMProDocs.Open("c:\MyFile.fp7","","")

Dim FMProDoc

FMProDoc.DoFMScript("MyScript")

Set FMProDoc=nothing"

Type this without the quotes at the front or back. Change the "MyFile" part to where your script is saved, and change "MyScript" to the name of the script. This will connect and run the FileMaker script.
