FileMaker Pro rename

Hi all,

We are trying using FileMaker Pro 5 for our database system, and I can get it to backup the files, but whenever I try to use the applescript function, which is where I become hopelessly lost, it doesn’t work out as planned or not at all.

What I’m trying to do is have filemaker create backups with different names, like the date, in their own folders. Is there a way to have the filenames be variable rather than the singular name that my current backup script supplies?

Thanks.

Hi,

Maybe we can help you better, if you show us your current script. You can easily post the code here on the forum.

Best regards from Berlin,

Martin
