Referring to a "current record" was never a problem for me before. But now
in 8.5 I can't find any anything that will reference it. I have tried"

set MyCellInfo to a reference to current record of table "MyTable"

Then try and set a variable against the reference. The reference accepts the
Current Record but can't do anything with it.

Using my old syntax I've tried

Tell application "FileMaker Pro"
    tell table "MyTable" of document "MyDatabase"
        set MyScores to cell "bones" of record 3 --this works
 set MyScores to cell "bones" of first record-- this works
 set MyScores to cell "bones" of last record-- this works

 set MyScores to cell "bones" of current record-- This generates Object Not
Found Errors. 
    end tell
end tell

Also tried tell table "MyTable" of database "MyDatabase" in the first line
with no luck. 

Is this broken or is there a different "current record" method?

Dan
