Problem with applescript in FMP

Hi All,

Can anyone spot a problem with this script - having hardly touched
appescript before I am at a loss - as you can see this has been sent to an
FMP list and an Applescript list just in case :)

This was on OS9 but now runs on OS X (or doesnt run)

-----------------------------------------------------------
set the_HTML to convert the clipboard to html with returns as line breaks
tell application "FileMaker 6"
activate
set cell "Italic 50wd blurb" of current record to (the_HTML as
string)
end tell
-----------------------------------------------------------

I get the error:

<<script>> doesn't understand the <<event oliehtml>> message (Error -1708)

I have had a problem with one script already (no value being copied onto
clipboard) and it was a case of putting "as text" on the end of a line.
Hopefully this is a similar problem.
