Why doesn't this work?

I get this Execution Error:

Can't make <<data Pict>> into a string

I found this script on the filemaker site. It's a little old:

tell application "FileMaker Pro"

-- count the found set of records in the (current) database and

-- put that number into NumOfRecords.

set NumOfRecords to count record of layout 0 of database 1

-- Loop through all the found set

repeat with i from 1 to NumOfRecords

-- Get the contents of "Picture" in a certain record of the

-- current database

set PictureReference to cell "Picture" of record i of layout 0 of database 1

-- Put the contents into "FileName" as text

set cell "FileName" of record i of layout 0 of database 1 to PictureReference as text

---------------------------

-- THE ERROR SEEMS TO BE HERE "PIctureReference as text" doesn't like the "as text"

--------------------------

-- Stop when you run out of records

end repeat

end tell

Never mind. It works if the file is stored as a reference. Something that the tech note made very clear to all but the stupidest of readers (me).

where did you find that file ??
