Filemaker show records

hi all,

i have a script that takes it's input form an textfile with serialnumbers, and searches for them in a Filemaker database, the problem i have at this moment is with serialnumbers that are in the textfile but not in the database. Filemaker throws up an error, that it can't find this number.

set x to "10000"
global The_Serial
repeat with i from 1 to x
set The_serial to i
tell application "filemaker pro"
show every record of database "serials" whose cell "serialnumber" is The_serial
end
set i to i + 1
end

what i want to do, is when this serial doesn't exist in the database, skip this number and go on with the script

thanks for your input,
Jacco
Netherlands
