I don't have additional character sets to test with but this works to change a message's label. It should be close.

tell application "Eudora" to activate

Great! That works fine.

Now here's a puzzle. This script works fine from Script Editor and Smile, but if you try running it from the scripts menu in Eudora, it throws an error. There's sme problem with the namespace -- probably 'name' -- but I can't get round it at the moment.

Try it and see if you can find a solution. I've tried all sorts of permutations.


tell application "System Events" to tell application process "Eudora"
set frontmost to true
set itemsref_ to a reference to menu items of menu "Label" of menu item "Label" of menu "Change" of menu item "Change" of menu "Message" of menu bar 1
end tell -- end of SysEv block
--
activate
set itemlist_ to contents of itemsref_
set namelist_ to get name of itemsref_
set choice_ to choose from list namelist_
return {choice_, return, itemlist_, namelist_}
