Apple script problems

I can't seem to get RunRev to respond to a simple applescript.

In Run Rev I have in field "theScript"

tell application "filemaker Pro5"
get every record
set theResult to result
end tell
tell application "Hypercard)"
activate
set card field "data" to theResult
end tell

And in my button:

On mouseUP
do field "theScript" as applescript
end mouseUp

Now this works as expected. (It is necessary to say "card field" or 
HyperCard will not recognize the field.

  But if I replace "Hypercard" with "Revolution" I get nothing in 
field "data" . (It doesn't help to change the line to: set field 
"data" to theResult.)

What is it that HyperCard sees that RunRev does not?
