1) Does some of you know how to print the current record or
2) even know how to create PDF file from current record which could be
mailed as an attachment file?
Here´s my script:
tell application "FileMaker Pro"
open "OS X:Users:Me:Desktop:test.fp7"
set the current record to record 2 of database "test.fp7"
print current record of current layout of database "OS
X:Users:Me:Desktop:test.fp7"
end tell
To help you in the future, you may want to check the difference between
database and document in FileMaker's Apple Events Reference database
(installed with FileMaker in the application's subfolder "FileMaker and
Apple Events"). In a nutshell, "document" takes account of the
database's current state while "database" doesn't. With this in mind,
"current record... of database" doesn't have any significant meaning.
Further, the syntax for "print" is incorrect. As others have suggested,
a FileMaker Pro script is probably called for here.
