:
This took some good google-fu for me to figure out, so I figured I’d post just in case anyone else is having the same problem.
I had the following snippet that worked perfectly for the local database:
set newFind to create new request
tell newFind
set field "Client matter number" to input
end tell
This failed when I migrated the database to a remote server. Instead, I use this.
set newFind to create new request with data {"", "", input}
The field in question (“Client matter number”) is the third field in the layout. This is why I specify two “” in the data.
I don’t know why the former doesn’t work for remote databases, but such is life!
