FileMaker has a Copy step in its ScriptMaker. I would create a script in FileMaker's ScriptMaker that uses this command, pastes it into a global text field on another layout (be sure to go to that other layout before pasting) and then appends the contents of that global field using your AppleScript.

Hi,

I have a script (made with the help of the List):

set pURL to {"http://www3.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov:80/htbin-
post/Entrez/query?form=6&db=n&Dopt=g&uid="}
tell application "FileMaker Pro"
copy cell "Genomic Accession #" of current record of document "EP screen" to fred
getURL ((pURL as string) & (fred as string))
end tell

which takes the contents of a FMP cell appends it to the URL which is then opened in my Browser of choice. I would now like to do something similar but with just a selection of a cell's contents. Does someone know how to copy some text and append it to a URL?

Thanks,

Simon
