Eric,

you can specify your FMPro find from AppleScript in the following manner:

tell application "FileMaker Pro"
show every record in database "myDatabase.fp5" whose cell "myFieldName" contains "myTextToFind"
show every record in database "myDatabase.fp5" whose cell "myNumberField" > 10
show every record in database "myDatabase.fp5" whose cell "myDateField" < "01/01/2001"
end tell

hope this helps.

Does anyone know if I can define a search criteria in a script in FMP 5. I can change to the Find Mode and execute a find but I can't find a way to define what criteria I want to find in the script.
