Open file hidden with account and password

Is it possible in a script to open another Filemaker file hidden and enter an account name and password without seeing any dialog.

I currently have one file that asks for an account name and password when you open it. I'd like to, from another file, open that file that asks for the account name and password and have my original file enter the account name and password to it to open the new file, and then make it hidden.

I hope that makes sense.

There are two ways to have a file open with no dialog:

1. Specify a default name and password or Guest account in the File Options.

2. Create an account in the file you want to open whose name and password match the currently logged in user of the file you're starting from.
