> Can anyone tell me how I can change the timing of a FileMaker server side script within the FileMaker client without having to log on to the FM Server 10? I have an hourly logging of an imported file that I would like the user to change from 1 to4 or so hours and I would need him to do it from his work staion 

You can't change the scheduling, but you can change the script. Have the script set a field indicating the last time it was run successfully. At the beginning of the script, have the script exit unless 4 hrs or more have elapsed since the last run.
