appIsRunning(appName) not showing with filemaker

Hi all,

This simple script seems to work with some apps (like TextEdit ) but not with FileMaker Pro ...
I do have 2 versions on this app (v 10 and v 11) - is that the problem - ( they are both called the same by file maker = FileMaker Pro)?




--set appName to "TextEdit"

set appName to "FileMaker Pro"


if appIsRunning(appName) then
	display dialog "Running"
else
	display dialog "Not Running"
end if

on appIsRunning(appName)
	tell application "System Events" to (name of processes) contains appName
end appIsRunning

Thanks,
