Just use FMPro to do the job, no applescript needed
1. Generate Found Set (one record, maybe more).
2. invoke an import script in the other database. It will import the current
found set
This is quickest with relationships. A quick way to isolate a record is to
have a relationship from a global field to a field in the same database. Set
the global field to random, then set the field in the current record to the
value of the global. Now show related, only one record matches: that's the
one you want.

Running the same script from "Finder" is a lot slower but successful.
