I'm an applescript newbie and can use some help...
Filemaker pro 9
Currently I have a bunch of text files (3 formats - .txt .dox .pages) in a
specific directory.
I have a Filemaker file with the doc titles already in the field called
'TITLE'
I would like to write a FM script using applescript to:
1 - open the file on disk
2 - extract the modified date
3 - extract the creation date
I can handle the Filemaker script stuff but I'm having trouble with the
perform applescript part...
-------
IN FM - I made a global text field and set it to:
Set GlobalPath =
"file:///Volumes/myDrive/myFolder/"&TitlesFile::Title
Q: But How do I set the path to add the title field in applescript?
tell application ³FileMaker Pro²
set mypath to "file:///Volumes/myDrive/myFolder/" and ???the value of
TitlesFile::GlobalPath ???
Or
set mypath to GlobalPath ????
end tell
I'm getting errors
---
Then how do I say:???
Open mypath .... It gives error (AS dosen't like this format) - it Says
error = -1713
Thanks in advance...
