I'd like to see if it's possible to write an applescript that takes a sound-file and permits the user to put it in their sounds folder in their America Online folder.
Copying a file from one place to another is a no-brainer - - - the problem I'm having is that each time the user upgrades AOL, they get a different DATA folder name. For example, I just upgraded to the new AOL Beta, and now all my AOL sound files are at this path:
Rob's Drive:Users:Shared:America Online:Data 6/13/02:Sounds
previously, they were stored at:
Rob's Drive:Users:Shared:America Online:Data 6/1/02:Sounds
How could I write an Applescript that checks all the foldernames in my "America Online" folder for the word "DATA", and then figures out which date that's appended to the word "DATA" is the latest date?
Fortunately, once that's figured out, all the soundfile names inside the SOUNDS folder are standard names. It's just this Data folder issue that's giving me problems.
