I know this is a bit late but I have finally had the time to try what David has suggested here. For any other newby, this works. Thanks David for the suggestion. Now my script waits for FMP to finish importing before moving on to the next file.

To synchronize an AppleScript with FileMaker Pro I use the following routine:
on WaitUntilReady()
with timeout of 5 seconds
repeat
try
tell application "FileMaker Pro" to get version
return
on error number errnum
end try
end repeat
end timeout
end WaitUntilReady
I presume that FileMaker won't return its version number until the
script is complete.
It can be called from the main part of your applescript as:
WaitUntilReady()
