Escaping to the desktop from Kiosk mode in FileMaker Pro (Win)


Ever wanted to shell to the desktop when running a bound solution in Kiosk mode? Well, you could do it manually by pressing [Ctrl-Esc]. But wouldn't a one-line script be much more elegant?

In a Dutch Windows system the Send Message script step pointing to:
C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Bureaublad weergeven
does it all. I don't know the English wording for the shortcut "Bureaublad weergeven" but it means "show desktop".

Good luck!
