Title: re: AppleScript and FileMaker problem
In order to guarantee that you're operating on a specific database you need to 'tell' AppleScript.

I use code (FileMaker 8) like this:


tell application "FileMaker Pro Advanced" to tell layout "g" to set cell "gAppleScriptReturnedString" to "Done FTP Transfer!"


This way, no matter how many databases are open, this will operate on the right one.
