Executing an Applescript from Filemaker

I give up!

I have an Applescript that works fine if I run it by simply doubleclicking on it in the finder... but i can't seem to get it to
execute from within Filemaker. (Thru a button)

If I paste the script into Filemaker's interface for dealing with Applescripts.. I get a "Application isn't running error -600"

Any idears?

Here's the script:

property theFile : "/Volumes/NetInstall-Restore/Applications/Utilities/Resources/Preferences/machine_specific_data.csv"

launch "/Applications/BBEdit 7.0 OSX +sn/BBEdit.app"
tell application "BBEdit"
activate
open theFile
cut text of window 1
end tell

tell application "FileMaker Developer"
activate
do script FileMaker script "Copy Global1"
end tell


tell application "BBEdit"
activate
set selection to the clipboard
save window 1
quit
end tell
