I am trying to extract an attachment from emails as a file. I want to be able to put the file path into a variable that I can then import into a Filemaker database along with subject, sender, message etc. I can get everything except the attachment. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

There was a (rather fascinating) workaround posted a couple of years back that involved writing the data to disk then extracting the binary with Stuffit.

I turned to MailSmith for automatic processing of attachments after reading it. <g>
