trouble getting cumulus 6 thumbnails into filemaker

hellos,

has anyone had any luck getting the thumbnails out of cumulus 6 and into filemaker?

i'm using the "HotScriptejp" java plug-in and the command is:

set the_thumbnail to (call EJP "com.publiactief.cumulus.ejp.HotScriptejp" message "getFieldValue#images#1#Thumbnail")


i've been able to pull out and use the other fields but not the thumbnail. i get an error about having a wrong type when i try set the filemaker field to the variable holding the thumbnail.

the filemaker field is a container which is what i want. if i change the field to text then the script sets it to the text "Thumbnail".

is there any way around this or am gonna have to go back to cumulus 5? it was a breeze with cumulus5, but unfortunately it's painfully slow on os-x


thanks for your help and time,
john v



my testing script follows:


tell application "Cumulus"
activate
--i'm getting the thumbnail of record 1 from the catalog "images"
set the_thumbnail to (call EJP "com.publiactief.cumulus.ejp.HotScriptejp" message "getFieldValue#images#1#Thumbnail")
end tell

tell application "FileMaker Pro"
create new record at end of database 1 of document 1 with data ({the_thumbnail})
go to last record
end tell
