I have a basic script that steps through every record in a FileMaker Pro database, but this gets rather slow with a database that has thousands of records. Is there a way to address records in a found set?

I currently use this in a loop: go to record x of database dbname. Then reference the current record to do what I need to do. Is there a similar go to found record x of database dbname?


yes, ask for the "document" instead of the "database".

Check the Applescript reference database that ships with filemaker for lots of detail about fmpro's applescript implementation.
