Hello List,

I would like to open a FileMaker Pro (version 5.5) database on a remote
machine and create some data. It is important that filemaker runs on a
remote machine not the machine where i'm running the applescript.

I have Problems implementing that. Provided FMPro is running and the
database is open i can create datasets with the line "create new ..."
from the script below.


Here is my script so far. This is how i should it should work.

property remote_IP : "eppc://192.168.50.1"
property remote_FileMakerPro : application "FileMaker Pro" of machine
remote_IP
property remote_Finder : application "Finder" of machine remote_IP

property Databasename : "MyFMProdatabase"
property HCSMacHardwareBase :
"laxmi:Users:jochen:Documents:work:Profiler:databases:" & Databasename

tell remote_FileMakerPro
using terms from application "FileMaker Pro"
open file database with password "secret"

tell document Databasename
create new record at end with data {"xxx", "yyy", "zzz"}
end tell
end using terms from
end tell

Problem 1:
FileMaker doesn't launch. The line "open file ..." errors with "Cannot
find process on host"

Problem 2: Provided FMPro is running. I receive the following error:
"User Interaction not allowd",localized in German "Benutzereingriff
nicht zuldssig"

Thanks for help. Should i use a newer version of FMPro?

thanks

jacques
