i've been trying to write a script that gathers a list from filemaker of
filenames looks to a specified source folder/disk and searches for that list
of files and pulls/ places any found matches inside another specified folder
and finall records a error log for any files that were not gathered.


any and all input is welcome,here is what i have thus, far.

property sourceFolderChoosen : "" as string
property destinationFolderChoosen : "" as string


set sourceFolderChoosen to choose folder with prompt "Pick a folder With The
Source Images."
set destinationFolderChoosen to choose folder with prompt "Images Returned
Minus Any Errors."
tell application "FileMaker Pro"
activate

tell database "3lil'pigs Converted.fp5"
-- or just database 1 for frontmost fm db
set filestosearchfor to field "f1" as list
end tell
end tell
repeat with currentfile in filestosearchfor
tell application "Finder"
display dialog (sourceFolderChoosen as string) & currentfile
--duplicate currentfile of folder sourceFolderChoosen to currentfile
of folder destinationFolderChoosen
end tell
end repeat

thanks, ted williams
