Hi Dieter,

I write this little example. Please, try it. You can place your data from FileMaker with the loop at the end of the script.

set myColumns to 7
set myRows to 3

tell application "InDesign 2.0.2"
	tell page 1 of document 1
		set myTextFrame to make text frame with properties {geometric bounds:�
			{"10 mm", "10 mm", "60 mm", "110 mm"}}

		tell myTextFrame
			set myTable to make table with properties {row count:myRows, column count:myColumns}
		end tell
		tell myTable
			repeat with i from 1 to myRows
				repeat with j from 1 to myColumns
					set contents of cell j of row i of myTable to ((i as string) & "-" & j as string)
				end repeat
			end repeat
		end tell
	end tell
end tell

Hope that help !

Oli.
