I am using FMPro 6 and uses the following;

tell application "FileMaker Pro" to activate
repeat with xx in RemoteList
set ff to "FMP5://web@*/" & (xx as text)
try
tell application "FileMaker Pro"
getURL ff
tell window (xx as text) to set visible to false
end tell
on error msg
log msg
end try
end repeat

/Heinrich

Begin forwarded message:

I have a FileMaker Pro 5.5 file on a master machine. When the slave machine (connected by a crossover cable) boots up, this script runs:

: "FMP5://*/cmboxes.fp5"

"FileMaker Pro"

"FMP5://*/cmBoxes.fp5"
tell


This all works fine with the master and the old slave, but the old slave is dying (noisily) and I have to transfer this over to an OSX box. When I run it, I get 'FileMaker Pro got an error: event not handled' and it kindly highlights the " bit. (I have no idea what the property line is in there for.) FileMaker 5.5 opens fine and the master is definately connected.

I just want the file cmBoxes.fp5 on the remote machine to open! This script was written a while ago and I'm too new with Applescript to understand what's going wrong.
