July 17, 200322 yr Hi all! I'm looking for a way to import an actual image into Filemaker with an applescript, NOT just a reference. The problem is, I need to store a preview of an image and a path to an image, and I need a simple way for my users to add pictures, from a mac, BUT, I need them to be able to see the same pictures on a PC, and they have to be stored in a volume that maps differently on the Macs then the PC's. It won't be LOTS of pictures, so I have no problem with storuing the image inside FMPro, and I have an applescript that works great, if I want to import a reference, but I just want to import the file itself! And, no, my company will not pay for Troi File. I already had to wheedle my way into Troi Dialog
July 18, 200322 yr There was just a thread addressing this issue in the AppleScript section... http://www.fmforums.com/threads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=17840&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1 You will see that I recommend using the GraphicImporter scripting addition. This allows you to set the cell to the PICT data, resulting in the image internally stored in FM.
