Trying to help a user, I wrote a script wich gave odd results.

I dropped a lot of things and reduced it to this bare one:

[...]

The result is really foolish:

"liste1 : 2, 3
liste2 : 2, 3
liste3 : 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10"

liste1 claims that visible of records 2 & 3 is true
but
liste2 claims that visible of records 2 & 3 is false.
Happily, liste3 gives the correct list.

So, at this time, I'm forced to use a loop when a whose clause was the theorical best choice.

Any idea to get a correct result with whose ?

Hello Yvan,

With the same database, could you show the result of

tell application "AppleWorks 6"
tell document 1
visible of records
end
end

then of

tell application "AppleWorks 6"
tell document 1
properties of records
end
end

?

The second returns a list of records of properties.

I must use a loop to isolate the visible items.

tell application "AppleWorks 6"

activate

tell document 1

set props to get properties of records

end tell

set liste to {}

repeat with r from 1 to count of props

if visible of item r of props is true then copy r to end of liste

end repeat

end tell

liste
