It is easy to get complete deadlock if you do something like this.

FM Database A: Invoke AppleScript X

AppleScript X: Attempt to access FM Database B

It appears that FM stops dead invoking an applescript.

In one case I solved this by making one of the databases a FileMaker application. This gives it a separate context.

So FM Application A can call an AppleScript that queries FM Database B ... and everything is happy.
