Exporting data with a predefined filename

Does anyone have an idea how to export records to an SLK type file,

where the filename is automatically determined trough a field which is

available in the database? Let me explain:

I have a database with several records, the first field ofthe last

record contains the desired filename.

Exporting this data works fine, but only with a

fixed filename, this is done in the export scriptstep

(filename:"blahblah" - type "SLK")

It would be a lot more interesting if the filename that is determined

in the field of that last record becomes actually the exportfilename.

As the operating system is WIN XP, I presume that Applescript doesnt work frown.gif

Any ideas regarding this would help me a lot...

I am searching the forums now to do the same, I would like to have my exported containers filename = 2 fields combined, the specify button does not seem to let you type in anything other than a file reference where I thing I would want a calulation.
