I have had no success in ever getting a question of mine answered on
this list, but will try again. Perhaps my questions are too elementary,
but I really am at a loss here and still a novice. Is there a "newbie"
list ?
I am running AS 9.0.4.
The code in question works outside of the main script and in Script
Debugger, but not within the script itself, which has a run handler with
parameters. The script just stops after the display dialog. The file
does exist and my variable is set to true if I run this outside of the
main script. What am I doing wrong?
on run{parameter list}
process_it(parameters)
other stuff
end run
on process_it(parameters)
set some variables
if (ADTYPE = "COU" or ADTYPE = "MIS" or ADTYPE = "WTM") then
set my_expandpath to (filepath & ".sit")
display dialog "my_expandpath = " & my_expandpath
tell application "Finder"
set stuffed_file to (exists (alias my_expandpath))
end tell
end if
end process_it
