Hi Oakley,

I have had a bash at your problem and can not come up with a solution. Attempts to import from Excel sheets fail for me on import with the statement: "Nothing selected".

This is what I tried:

tell application "Microsoft Excel"
	activate
	select range "A1:F500" of sheet "Sheet1"
end tell
tell application "FileMaker Pro Advanced"
	activate
	tell layout "Layout #2" of window 1 of document "Temp1.fp7"
		do script "Import Documents"
	end tell
end tell

What I can suggest is to have your Excel files saved as XML sheets and they will import easily without problem.
