FileMaker Certification Test Preparation | Writing Scripts: Install OnTimer Script

This training video is a sample excerpt from the Writing Scripts section of our FileMaker Certification Test Preparation complete course available at Productive Computing University.

The Install OnTimer script step is such a powerful tool!
Perhaps it is not used as often because it is not very well known.
Whether you are studying to be a certified developer or just wanting to expand the tools in your scripting toolbox, this is a must know feature.
The general use is so beneficial that it is very tempting to dive right in before really understanding the details of how OnTimer works.
Be sure to watch the entire video so you know the pitfalls to look out for and prevent unnecessary disruption of your productivity!

This is such a great tool! The only reason I waited so long to use it was because I didn't understand it. Even the name was confusing. After this short video, you'll have a newfound appreciation for this little gem, as well as the understanding of the Install OnTimer Script[] step that could show up on the certification exam!
