sush has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Wise Monks,
I am looking to run some FileMaker scripts from Perl. Is there any other way to run them other than making a windows system call. Are there any modules out there ( did a CPAN search w/o any results) to create FM handles and run scripts from there?

Thanks in Advance,
Sush

    If you want to access it as a database using DBI then Re: Filemaker access from Perl may help.

    If you mean something other than that then you need to be a little more explicit about what you want to do. An example citing what you do now and how you'd like to automate it may help.
