Applescript and FMP7 and found set

[cgriffith4]

As with every other release of FMP, this new one breaks all my applescripts:

After performing a 'find' I need to determine the number of found records.

On v5.5 I used

try set curRect to current record

on error

blah blah...

what is the current (undocumented) solution to how to do this?

grumble, grumble, grumble...

It will be better to grumble after you've provided us more information if you expect any help.

All of this works fine:

id of current record

display dialog result

count of every record of current table

display dialog result

name of current table

display dialog result

You should post your whole script.

Bruce, you must truly be a joy to work with.

Actually, you did provide the answer I needed.

"Bruce, you must truly be a joy to work with."

Yes, I've been told that with both meanings.

But it's a basic consideration of coming here - if you want free help, please consider the efforts others wlll need to expend in order to understand your request - and err on the side of completeness.

You posted a question about record count and included completely unrelated information - something about record ID. So we don't know what you actually tried to do.

This also makes it easier for others to look at the big picture when trying to help you. For instance there is probably much still available to learn if you're willing to discuss the context and your script details.
