batch import help for newbie

[Guest]

I have a filemaker file of records (Windows98), one field of which contains the pathname to a jpg file.

I would like to automate the importation of each jpg (via its pathname) into a container field within the record.

Is there a way--script, plug-in (I've considered Troi's File plugin, but I think it deals with text only), or maybe an editor like Winbatch?

Any help would be appreciated--Aaron.

FYI: There is a discussion underway about this very topic under this section (Scriptmaker) entitled "loading images".
