Oops! Sorry Jay ... just realised I included one too many "current record" contexts in that code. Should have been:

tell current record of database "start.fp5"
  set theEmail to cell "KNDstamm::EmailAddress"
end tell


Hi Jay,

Is it possible using AS to get the cellvalue from one of the records of “KNDstamm.fp5” without physically opening it and how is that done ?

You can't get a value from a file that isn't open--but you can get a value from a file that's open in a hidden window, and you can get a value from a related record. For instance if you had a relationship that linked Name in start.fp5 to EmailAddress in KNDstamm.fp5, then you can use AS that looks like:


tell current record of database "start.fp5"
  set theEmail to cell "KNDstamm::EmailAddress" of current record
end tell
