solutions on OS X. Since the native scripting did not work I ended up
running more and more pieces in Classic, which is not what I wanted.

In an earlier post the problem I read that

but I don't think that is true, since I can perform such a script from
AppleScript. 

With Frontier, if the frontmost window is not the queried database all goes
wrong. (German) Filemaker support denies any problem with that.

Also, using "FileMaker find requests" slows down the whole solution and
requires the use of semaphores to block other requests, whereas the complex
get operation does not.

Enough said, if you have any suggestion please let me know...


Best regards
