If it's working for you maybe you can help Chris Page find the
problem by
stating exactly what your (older?) configuration is.
I'm certain I know what the problem is. As I've been saying, only
typeChar (plain text) is supported for the body property. My own
experimentation indicates that coercing the clipboard to "text" or
"string" in a script still results in Palm Desktop being handed an
Apple event with typeStyledText ('STXT'), no matter what I do.
Perhaps coercing to a list of characters and back might work? (I'll
try it later, I've got to get going right now.)
