Chuck,

Would AppleScript UI-scripting be an acceptable workaround until then?

Regards,
Lee.

Addendum to Previous About Passenger....

I've communicated with the maker of this app. He says he's going to have a new version out sometime this year....likely Summer. And he's looking to include AE-awareness.

Regards,

Chuck

On crucial problem with Passenger....

....it's not Apple-Event aware.

If I can't applescript it, I can't use it.

It's as simple as that.

Hi Bev,

I've been playing around with Passenger.

It looks like it will fill-the-proverbial-bill. And then some.....

It will import and parse the XML export from Workgroup Manager. And it will export the resulting data to any form I care to make of it. Some stuff will have to be parsed in the script for a relational management of multiple e-mail addresses and such. But that's not a show stopper..

Regards,

Chuck
P.S. Kudos to Steve for pointing this app out. Also like the Fallacy Tutorial I found there as well....

Chuck, if it can export as tab-delimited or comma-separated, maybe. Again, you must have the XML formatted as FMP can import it. Please read all about
import/export formats that FMP can use, in the online help.

THAT looks useful....

I take it that it can export data from Passenger into a form that can be
imported into an FMP database system. And visa-versa.

Regards,

Chuck

I export the data from Workgroup Manager and attempt to pull the data into an FMP database using the Import->XML Data Source, but I get an invalid document structure error. Going to have to talk with the Apple Enterprise people to see just what's going on from their perspective and how to
overcome this malfunction.

It's not actually a malfunction, Chuck. As Beverly mentioned you'll need an XSL file to convert the Workgroup Manager XML into a form that
FileMaker can load. You'll either need to write that XSL
transformation yourself or find someone who has/can do it for you.
