Producing Barcodes

Hi All,

I have a filemaker db which generates barcodes using applescript the code is as follows:

        tell application "FileMaker 6"
                activate
                set nik to cell "SKU 9 digit" of current record
        end tell
       
        tell application "Barcode"
                activate
                make barcode with properties {type:"ISBN-OCRB", Size:"100", height:"26", bwr:"0", data:nik, colour:"0 0 0 100", saved:"text"} ¬
                       
        end tell

This works fine on OS9 but not always on OSX - can anyone see anything obvious that will make it fail on OSX???
???? Its probably a casting issue thats needs something like "as text" or something on the end of a line. (I dont know as I have little to no experience with AS but these things have cropped up in the past when migrating filemaker dbs to OSX from OS9)
