I have had problems with that as well.
As a quick fix I just used a "Finder" tell statement instead.
or this works fine with my System 9.04 & FMP 4
-- start
property The_DB : "Hosted file"
tell application "FileMaker Pro"
activate
try
open file The_DB
on error
display dialog "The \"Hosted File\" has not been opened"
end try
end tell
-- end
