Malcolm, Thanks for the response. Assume this Panther only.

Will move to Panther eventually:

- is this technique considerably faster than running from an Applet?

Also curious why you need to "tell process..." (as compared to app")

I'm guessing that its faster because System Events is already running whereas you'd have to wait for an applet to fire up.


As for tell process... System Events talks about 'application processes'.


In OS X you might try system events, don't forget to turn on "use
assistive devices" in the Universal Assistance prefs pane.



tell application "FileMaker Pro" to activate
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Filemaker Pro"
keystroke "l" using command down
end tell
end tell
