hi,
Thanks for the idea of opening outlook express dictionary. i was
trying to open its dictionary through the shortcut, which i created on the
desktop. so it gave a script which will open the out look express.

About mouse position.
i want to make a small program where by, when i move the mouse
pointer to a icon on the desktop the icon must move away from it. i.e. i
must not be able to click that icon. But i did not find any information
regarding that in the help of script editor.


thank you for your kind response

regards
arun mozhi selvan

That's all you need to get off to a good start. :)

First, may I ask why you want to get mouse clicks? What are you trying to
accomplish in your script?

It may be that you can do whatever you are trying to accomplish in a much
simpler way. Tell us what your script is trying to do (the big picture).
Then we may be able to give you more comprehensive help.

To view the dictionary of any scriptable application, just drag the
application icon over the icon of your script editor. You can also use the
script editor File > Open dictionary command.
