If you can't get the filename exactly what you want, why don't you go with the flow, let FMP create the wrong file name and then just copy or move the file to the name and place that you want it to be?

- David Crowe

Amazingly, I am working on that aspect just now - but again I can't get this to work either as Applescript called from FMP or from AppleScript Editor. My script is, from FMP :

Set theKnownPath to "PDF:Tool Bar Dock.pdf"
(--ie FMP's usual generic name; also saves as "Untitled")
tell application "FileMaker Developer" to set the newName to cell "Applescript Name Annual Extract-1" of current record
tell application "Finder" to set the name of file theKnownPath to newName & ".pdf"

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for any help
