Writing script to emport file into another application

Hello,

I would like to get some guidance on using a script (attached to a button) that will expedite some of my database management. I currently need to be able to move files that are cataloged in FMP and open them in another application efficiently/quickly.

I was able to use AppleScript to create a button on each record page to open the particular app but not to open the specific file within it. Any recommendations?

Thanks.

Is this an Applescript question? Filemaker cannot open a file in another application.

What exactly does "cataloged" mean?
