I don't understand this. It looks like it sets the properties of
mypath's record. Would someone smart explain?
Nor do I understand this, same thing but this time addressing a FMP cell:
My FileMaker commands now look like:
set {text:cell "Document Title"} to Title
It seems that Filemaker and the Finder both accept this method. How
can we determine what properties of an object may be addressed in
this way?
