It may work correctly for you.'

Actually, I've discovered a really weird thing...the script checks *any* box
that has been clicked before it runs, regardless of its title. Try checking
the box for "Belgian" and run it. For no discernible reason, it checks that
instead of the "Character Palette."

That suggests your script is relying, implicitly or explicitly, on which box
currently has focus.

You just might have something there. I'll fool with it a bit more tomorrow. In any case as currently written the script specifically looks for and supposedly clicks the row with "Character Palette" in it, apparently System Events ignores the intention and does it's own thing. Not good!
