Erik and others...
I discovered that the problem is not so simple. It appears to derive
from me using both FileMaker Developer 6 and FileMaker Developer 7 at
the same time.
The applications work quite nicely for the most part, but some
scripting appears to be messed up.
I call version 6 just "FileMaker" and version 7 "FileMaker
Developer". And for the most part AppleScript can distinguish them.
But one script that I run to activate a particular database does open
the database in version 7, but also activates version 6 (even if it's
not running at the time).
I've a feeling that this might be a problem of AppleScript using the
wrong dictionary or something like that (although 'current record' is
not new in FileMaker 7).
It's strange that "current record" doesn't work (even if indented
within a "tell table" statement), but "record 1" does work.
Happy Holidays to everyone on the list, btw.

I think you need to add another level: Tell Table "TableName"
