Is the database window open? It must be open for this to work.

This is untested but I believe you can use:
quote:
DBONLINE
Syntax: #DBONLINE
Related: #DBOFFLINE
Puts the database into Online mode so that scripting commands effect the user interface.
Might save you from manually opening the database.

Nope, you still need to have the DB window open. There is no way around this.
What #DBONLINE and #DBOFFLINE do is enable/disable the updating of the datbase window after some change. If you are going to make a lot of changes to the database, you can use #DBOFFLINE to avoid an update after each change and thus speed things up.
