I have an Applescript that is too long to run inside Filemaker Pro 6’s ScriptMaker: Perform Applescript command. Apparently there is a 64,000 character limit to the text box you paste the script into in Filemaker Pro 6.

Almost half of the script is handlers that I could reference by loading them as a library (thus allowing me to get below the 64,000 char. limit), but from within Filemaker Pro 6, I can’t get this to work. For some reason I get the error:

I'm not sure if this will solve your problem since I don't do Filemaker and I haven't used this in many years, but take a look at the 'run script' command in Scripting Additions.osax ...
run script v : Run a specified script or script file


run script script : the script text (or an alias or file reference to a script file) to run
[with parameters list of any] : a list of parameters
[in text] : the scripting component to use; default is the current scripting component
→ any : the result of running the script
