I have a multi-user database in Filemaker.

I frequently use AppleScript to automate tasks between several databases.

tell application "Filemaker Pro"

tell document "theDatabase.fp7"

tell layout "National Geo"

go to

set artNumber to cell "NG_ArtID"

end

end

end			  

When I run the above script as a user, I get "Filemaker Pro got an error: Your access privileges do not allow this action."

The user account has full access to that layout and to the table that ALL of the fields on that layout are from.

When I run as an admin, I do not get the error.

Any idea what access privilege might not be set properly?

Interestingly, to get data out of filemaker, the user's account has to allow for the exporting of records.

Once, this is enabled I can get data from filemaker fields just fine.
