FileMaker uses tables now. Cells, fields and records are elements of tables,
not databases.
Perhaps:

tell database "BDEInteface.fp7"
tell table "table number"
set cell etc...

Take a look at the dictionary and the Applescript FileMaker Reference at
<http://www.fmpromigrator.com/downloads/demo_software/index.html>
