Moving data from FM pro to Excel

Hi fellow scripters,

I am trying to move the contents of a field in FileMaker to a cell in
Excel. This could be a new spreadsheet or an existing one (the latter
would over-write data if the cell had content). I am able to move data
from one filemaker db to another, but can't figure out the correct syntax
for going to Excel. This is what I have for FM, which acts upon new
records, creating the same data to act as a relational link between the
two files.

set newRecord to create new record in database "X"
set cell "a" of newRecord to cell "a" of current record of database "Y"
as text

Any ideas?

thanks,
Anders
