I know that FileMaker is keeping track of the name of the file is has imported because it's there as the default file name when I export a record. I'm looking through all of the status functions but can't find one that captures this info. Anybody know how to get this info via a script?

Thanks.

I am pretty sure that FMP uses OS system calls for the open and save dialog boxes and does not create or store that information within the application. There might be some way to poll the OS for this information, but I do not know how.
