Open File - Correct Syntax?

in FileMaker Go for iPhone & iPad

I am trying to open a local file on the iPad from my hosted solution and I'm using the Open File script step, but no matter what I try to put in for the filename, it isn't finding my file. 

 

Is there some trick to this?

I'm still not having any luck. I have tried:

 

Open URL["fmp://%7e/MyFile.fmp12"]

 

Open URL["fmp://%24/MyFile.fmp12"]

 

Open URL["fmp:/" & Get(DocumentsPath) & "MyFile.fmp12"]

 

To no avail.  :mad:

Nevermind! I am a moron and had my filename incorrect. Thank you for your reference, it did help.
