I didn't see this show up on the list, so I am resending it. Sorry if it is a duplicate. Deb
Conversation: Exporting images to a file Subject: Re: Exporting images to a file I am pulling my hair out. I got an extension on my deadline, but I still cannot get the AppleScript to work. I am a neophyte on AS. Both Fenton and Andre, you've assured me this is easy, but I can't get either solution to work. I know it's probably syntax but that hasn't helped me track down what's going wrong. Am I supposed to write an AppleScript and then use it in FileMaker "Perform Applescript" command? I keep getting "can't find object" or "cannot end line with "" ", etc. I'm just very confused. For those who have not followed this thread: FMP 9 (I have 8.5 Advanced but the computer we are using has 9), Mac, OS X.something or other. I have a file folder with about 6000 images. I have a FMP database with references to about 3500 of those images. I need to copy or move the 3500 matching database images into a separate folder (these will be burned on a portable drive). I'd like to do this in a batch. Aargh! Deb Deborah Tinsley Assoc. Librarian of Visual Resources Kansas City Art Institute [email protected] 816 802 3395 ------ End of Forwarded Message
