copy a fields contents in Cumulus

I have never used Applescript before but have run out to buy the
"Quickstart" book so I am ready for the big leap.

In the meantime while I clamber up the learning curve can someone point
me in the right direction for copying the contents of a field ("Record
Name") to another field which I have created (called "mySortField") in
Cumulus 5.

Also, as a matter of interest, is it possible to copy part of the text
in a field? For example the text in the "Record Name" field are in two
parts separated by a space. i.e. "F16E01 1234.jpg". I want to select the
first part of the record name (i.e. "F16E01") and paste that into
another field. When using Macromedia Director I can write a line of code
that will select all of the text up to a given character (in this case
as space). Is this possible in Applescript?

Many thanks,
Kelvin Aitken.
