Hello all. I'm new to AppleScript (and this list), but learning to automate
my monthly report publishing to our ASIP server. I searching for a way to
create new monthly folders (without dialog input from me) when its time to
copy the report file(s) to the server. Our naming convention for these
folders is YYYY-MM (e.g., 2001-10). Is there a way in AppleScript to
incremently create a new folder once a month when it's time to post the
report? In other words, can I get it to read the last folder created then
correctly create and name the new one (taking into account when the year
rolls over)? Thank you in advance.
