The following snippet reliably crashed FMP7 -
tell application "FileMaker Developer"
set cellData to cell "FileRef" of current record of window 1
end tell
set fileRef to cellData as string --this crashed FMP when the cell was a
container which stored a file
DETAILS:
the tested cell "fileRef" was an inserted file (not store reference only)
so naturally the amount of data returned was large - but I tried this on
tiny files - and still FMP went BLAMMO
**** Is there anyway to test if a cell is just a file reference is stored
(so I can avoid crashes) - as it seems accessing this data is dangerous?
I'd like to be able to to return the file reference: file "HD:folder
filename" when that's all that¹s stored -- (not the data) -- but don't dare
Thanks in advance,
xandra
