filemaker pro 7 record ID issues

I am transitioning a database from fmp 6 to 7 and i have an on going issue with record ID's according to applescript not matching those given by the get record ID function of FMP 7.
could some one else test this for me.

create a database with one field displaying the calculation result of get record ID

use apple script to create 1000 records as below

tell application "FileMaker Pro 7" -- renamed fmp 7 as running fmp6 on the same machine
repeat 1000 times
tell database 1
create new record


end tell




end repeat
end tell
use apple script to below to check id returned via applescript
tell application "FileMaker Pro 7"
tell window 1
get ID of last record




end tell




end tell


on my machine i get something like
3.4642E+4
where as the calulated field gives a different number more like the count of records


cheers
