I am having this same problem trying to paste an image copied from Photoshop
7 into a FileMaker container cell . Did you ever resolve this problem?

When running an AppleScript that makes a call to a FileMaker script

The error only appears when the AppleScript is run from a Perform

Running the exact same script from Script Editor instead of from within

The only thing I can think of is that there's a problem with a

have the FileMaker script run, then do the rest of the AppleScript.

Anyone have experience with this and any ideas of what I can do?
