Use FMPro layouts.
Place ONLY the fields that you want to be in the record on a layout.
get all records of layout X

Please forgive what I hope is an easy question. I'm just not sure
how to go about this.
I've got a list of records that I get out of FileMaker Pro. It's a
little slower than snot at about 20 minutes when I want to refresh
that list. The question is: is there a way to save these lists of
records to a file so that I can just open that again if I know the
data in the FMP database hasn't changed since the list of records
was last generated?
For instance in FMP I've got a couple fields and a couple records so
when bringing it into AppleScript I generated a record for each FMP
record and put together a list of those.
{{Field1:"Data1",Field2:"Data2"},
{Field1:"Data3",Field2:"Data4"}}
Actually it's a bit more complicated (lists within records within
lists within... you get the point) so I'm at a lost to see how I
could just save this to a text file and read it back in fairly
easily. Any tricks I'm missing?
TIA,
Landis
