Chuck Posted January 17, 2001 Share Posted January 17, 2001 This should do what you want. Just replace the JobNumber and Desc with your job number and description fields and the Jobs.fp5 database name with your database name. tell application "FileMaker Pro" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signal Posted January 17, 2001 Author Share Posted January 17, 2001 Thanks Chuck!! What about error catching if the folder already exists (I'd hate to wirte over it) or if the drive is not mounted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Posted January 19, 2001 Share Posted January 19, 2001 Try this: tell application "FileMaker Pro" set folderName to (cell "JobNumber" of layout 0 of database "Jobs.fp5") & (cell "Desc" of layout 0 of database "Jobs.fp5") end tell tell application "Finder" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
