Chris, I'm seeing problems whe I try to set the contents of a memo.

tell application "Palm Desktop"
tell (make memo)
set title to "test"
set contents to "this is cool" -- error here
end tell
end tell

As you may or may not know, 'contents' is used elsewhere in Applescript.

Maybe there is some conflict?

Perhaps, but I thought it was fine to use the standard 'contents' property. And I thought I tested this. Blarg!

You're probably better off setting the contents during creation, anyway, as it only sends one event to Palm Desktop instead of three:

make memo with properties {title:"test", contents:"this is cool"}

If you need to set the contents of an existing memo, the obsolete term 'body OBSOLETE' still works. You can use that as a workaround. Both terms are implemented using exactly the same code.
