Fraser,
Try this. Was working in 9 & X you should still be able to
open a DB as an alias if you build your path right and in a way
that it will work in 9 or X. You could do a path to me as string
then strip off the name of the script itself and insert the name of
the DB.
tell application "FileMaker Pro"
activate
tell database "AllMyStuff"
with timeout of 30000 seconds
show window 1
end timeout
end tell
end tell
