need help with making an app come to the front

I’m a newbie who’s trying to make a script to run in Filemaker to simply open an app and have it come to the front. Here’s what I have so far:

tell application “Cardiris 3.0”
run
set frontmost to 1
end tell

However, when I run the script, I get the following message:

“Cardiris got an error: Can’t set frontmost to 1.”

Is the failing my script, or the Cardiris program?

Hi,

The application is probably not scriptable. Try:

tell application “Cardiris 3.0”
activate
end tell

If that doesn’t work, then you can set the process property ‘frontmost’.

gl,

Here’s the process way:

tell application “System Events”
set frontmost of process “Safari” to true
end tell

gl,

Thanks. I tried

tell application “Cardiris 3.0”
activate
end tell

and it worked just right.
