I use Script Scheduler in the Auto Enter Calculation field definition to
activate a FileMaker Script that contains this AppleScript

tell application "FileMaker Pro"
tell document "Interior Program"
set CustNum to cell "Customer Number" of current record
set CustName to cell "Customer Name" of current record
end tell
end tell
set vemail to "email@hidden"
set vsubject to "New Interior Account in FileMaker"
if CustName b "" then
set vcontent to "<html><body>Customer " & CustNum & CustName & "
was created." & "</body></html>"
tell application "Outlook Express"
set myMsg to make new outgoing message with properties
{subject:vsubject, address:vemail, content:vcontent, has html:true}
send myMsg with sending
end tell
tell application "FileMaker Pro"
activate
end tell
else
end if
