"Newbie" question: is there a script for Cumulus??

Hello, I’m using Canto Cumulus for image management and need to be able to import Filemaker Pro databases into it. I’ve been told Applescript is the script writer to use. Does anyone know if a script exists for accomplishing this task? (I’ve checked with the Cumulus forums, Canto support, etc. The forum suggested this site for info.) I’m hoping someone can tell me that this “creature” exists or, if not, that a newbie can create one.

Thanks in advance for any info, help, guidance,
DLMST

I’m not sure a newbie at applescript can do such GREAT job, but a little of previous learning will do!.. Cumulus & Filemaker authomation are thypical thopics for applescript training (http://www.tecsoft.com/)
You can find some samples at:
