Hi Simon!


Thanks for the good example you wrote me.

It works just fine.

I had seen a similar script in the Filemaker's example folder, but could not get it to work. Yours is just perfect.

Thankyou!

Bernardo

tell application "FileMaker Pro"
	tell document "TheDoc.fp5"
		delete every request
		create new request
		set cell "Date_Modified" of request 1 to "13/3/2005…14/3/2005"
		find
	end tell
end tell

Its the elipses (...) character between the 2 dates - FileMaker's "range" symbol. Your greater than or equal to and less than of equal to string may work just as well.

Hi List!


I have this string that I am already able to generate:

"≥01.03.2005≤31.03.2005"

(first day of this month to last day of this month expressed in a brazilian format)

I need to perform a find in the record's date of creation cell (or field?) with this string, by just pressing a button.

But it seems I don't quite understand the difference between "cell" and "field", and not understand what a "request" is.

I get many messages of errors saying that the cell can not be written or the data is invalid.

Can you help me by writing me an example line of AppleScript that will do the equivalent of:

Entering my Filemaker app into "Find Mode" and inserting the above string in the creation date cell (or field?) and hitting enter?

Thank you,
