Gotta love AppleScript eh?
Ok I'm having a conversation with myself...
Let's say I have a FileMaker field that houses the location of the file.
How can I get it to attach that file? I'm getting wrong data types,
although I'm trying to coerce it into a file type:
tell application "FileMaker Pro"
set myEmailTarget to cell "Email" of current record of window 1
set myGeneratedEmail to cell "Generated Email Body" of current record of
window 1
set myLocation to cell "Attachment_1_Location" of current record of
window 1
set myAttachment to {file:myLocation}
end tell
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
activate
set draftWindow to make new draft window with properties ,
{subject:"OH YEAH BABY", content:myGeneratedEmail,
attachment:{file:myLocation}, to recipients:myEmailTarget}
end tell
Cheers
