You can just run text files, you can also send variables into the test file
you want to run and return stuff also.
eg:
---
tell application "Finder"
set localDisk to name of startup disk & ":"
end tell
set theScriptFile to ((localDisk) & "Desktop Folder:runThisScriptFile" as
string
set ([returnVar1, returnVar2]) to (run script file (theScriptFile) with
parameters ([localDisk])
----
or you can just run it without any parameter or return vars:
--
run script file (theScriptFile)
--
hope this helps,
Gary.

Hi guys,
I've generated textfiles from a database.
These files are Applescripts in text format.
I want to run these "scriptfiles" automatically by using an other
applescript with;
tell theScriptFile to run
As far as I know it can only "RUN" compiled scripts.
So I need to compile these databasefiles first, am I wrong?
And If i'm wrong about compiling them first, how can i run them??
If there is way to automated the process of compiling them,
how would i do that?
