Now that you mention it, I believe you *can* do this in FMP3.

Just to clarify the process, this means defining a calculation field (let's
call it 'locationCalc') and enter the calculation as:

"open location ""http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid="; & [noBreak]
MS KB number & """"

(Or whatever.)

Then, in the FileMaker script, select 'Perform AppleScript'. But instead of
'Script text', check the 'Field value' option - and specify the calculation
field 'locationCalc' as the script source.

I'm pretty sure this should work, in which case - good call, John. (Perhaps
Robert can try it and confirm?)
