tell application "FileMaker Pro"
-- address command to a specific DB
tell database "Sample05.fp5"
-- show all
show every record
-- delete records matching a certain criteria
delete (every record whose cell "Company" contains "ABC")
end tell
end tell
This information and more is in the Apple Events Reference database that
ships with FMP. HTH.
