Just did a few simple tests, yes it can be scripted while minimized. There were a few things I had to do when scripting a hidden window that I do not have to do when scripting a minimized window, so this looks like a good technique. > I used to use FMkr to export data called by Applescripts, but user interface > was no concern since this was a server.

Maybe you're just talking about Filemaker client with nobody operating it. > Does the FMkr database have to be on the same Mac? Being frontmost will not > be an issue in that case.
