Hi,

I need help about Filemaker Server 7 automation.

I need a create an AppleScript about:

Tell application "Filemaker Server"

close database "xxx"

end tell

Tell application "Filemaker Server"

open database "xxx"

end tell

I don´t know how it is possible. Is Filemaker Server Admin scriptable?

Thanks

It is scriptable but it does not apple events, it has a command line.

locate the "fmsadmin" file (in the Library FMS folder, under Tools") in terminal and run it. Check out the full set of commands there. They're also listed on page 7 of the FMS Tech Brief (from the FMI web site).

Spend some time with that, then you can decide whether to use it in a shell script or an applescript.
