I would use the "IsEmpty" calculation in FileMaker to return the status of the container field. Define a new calculation field called "Image Test" or something and set it to:

If(IsEmpty(image), "No Picture", "Picture")

where "image" is the name of your container field, "no picture" is the result of an empty field and "picture" is the result of a field with a value. Then you should be able to get those records whose field "image test" is "no picture" ala:

tell application "FileMaker Pro"
activate
show (every record of database 1 whose cell "image test" = "no picture")
end tell

--jmc

picture container field but am having trouble nutting out how to get a
boolean result on whether a container field is empty or not.
