I am new to AppleScript and before I spend time to learn it, I though I
might just find out if this is possilbe. It's very simple thing. I just
need it timed. I don't know AppleScript in any way.

Example of what I am look for. Will AppleScript do this?


Lets say it's now Firday night. I need this done.

At 10:00 p.m. on this Thursday night (4/5/01)
#1 start MS Explorer.
#2 Open previously saved page in a folder
#3 Wait for the page to load,
#4 Press return
#5 Then wait for the next page to load
#6 Then press return
#7 Then wait for the next page to load
#8 Then close the window
#9 REPEAT until all pages (items) have been done in that folder
#11 Then quit Explorer.

Can I assign that to a button to in DragThing?

Thanks for all your help. I might add a pring just before the page is
closed. If this can be done, I look forward to learning this scripting
language.

Robert
