Folder action problem

I’m probably going about this the wrong way…

I’m trying to open a CSV file in Excel (2010 or 2004 doubt it really matters for this which version)
So I :
Create a New Workbook
Save with a set/temp name (gets deleted once done)
Import the text file
Delete a few line (via an Applescript action)

Then import and manipulate all the new data in FileMaker

I made a test Workflow and got it all working with a hard coded CSV file name (minus the Filemaker end of things)
So Now I like the idea of the folder action (did it used to be called a droplet?)
What I seem to be up against is that the file dropped on the folder, needs to be imported a couple steps into the Workflow, not the default initial action.

I think I found the solution, dump it into a variable and use later duh!
