I'm working on a project where I have an AppleScript date object which
I want to write to a FileMaker Pro date field. Just trying to set the

dd/mm/yyyy format that my (UK) version of FileMaker will accept.
However, as soon as someone in the US uses this script, it'll fail (or
give unexpected results).
So, what's the preferred way of getting a date into a FileMaker Pro
date field? Is there something obvious that I'm overlooking? If not,
how can I tell what date format FileMaker is working with?
FileMaker 7 just came out this week and treats dates differently, so
keep your fingers crossed that the problem is solved. If not, any
solution you do find is likely to break. :-(
