creating structure elements (fields, layouts, value lists, relationships,
scripts) are not possible with pure in AS in FMP. (create new field is
not a valid statement)
With something like a combination of AS and OneClick it is possible to
drive th interface and create such elements in OS8. I am not sure if
OneClick or similar is available for OSX.
