Need Help with Script

To all:

I'm trying to get the following simple script to work:

set goFlag to false

tell application "FileMaker Pro 5"
try
set {fname, email} to ({field "First Name", field "Email Address"} of front document)
set goFlag to true
end try
if goFlag then

tell application "Eudora 5.1"
activate
set msg to make new message at end of mailbox "out"
tell msg
set field "To" to email
display dialog "Enter Subject" default answer "Checking In"
set field "subject" to the text returned of the result
set body to "Dear " & fname & ":" & return & return
end tell
end tell
end if
end tell

It worked okay the first few times I ran it but now it stops as soon as it comes to Eudora and opens the new message. I'm sorry for the sloppy formatting. I haven't figured out how to copy/paste an Applescript from the Script editor into Eudora and have it look correct. All help appreciated.

Sincerely,
Howard
