Yes. Regular strings (actually Unicode strings, but regular MacRoman strings
are first coerced to Unicode text) do automatically bridge to NSString
objects when using call method. Similarly AppleScript integers and reals
bridge to NSNumber, lists bridge to NSArray and NSMutableArray, records
bridge to NSDictionary and NSMutableDictionary (which is Tetsuro ought to be
be able to set his variable theDict to his call method without an error - I
think), and dates to NSDate (not NSCalendarDate). In fact a Method which
requires a plain C int might need a cast from NSNumber - I've forgotten . If
the 'with paramater 10' I suggested still doesn't work it might be for that
reason - let's see what Tetsuro reports.
