Christian and Damon

thanks for your replies.

Following up your comments I found that I was updating the doc record in FM
with an editor name (having committed the record creation process previously),
and when I then tried to add by Applescript the doc properties, it was blocked.

I like the idea of a Open Record script step and will implement it
