i’m trying to cut data from fields in filemaker pro and paste them into a browser (ie: safari) that has similar fields. can applescript handle this?

Yes!

tell app "FileMaker Pro" to set theText to cell x of record y of database z
--> eg, we'll fill the search field of <http://www.google.com/>, already opened in Safari:
tell application "Safari" to do JavaScript "document.f.q.value='"& theText&"'" in document 1

Playing: one-line…

tell application "Safari" to do JavaScript "document.f.q.value='" & «class ccel» x of «class crow» y of «class cDB » z of app "FileMaker Pro" & "'" in document 1
