Address Book Chat Handles


  • Subject: Address Book Chat Handles

I've read the list archives and Paul Berkowitz has kindly mentioned some of the bugs related to the Address Book.

My question to the list is if anyone has the proper syntax for adding a chat handle (MSN, Yahoo, ICQ, Jabber, AIM) to a contact record?

I know you can get it out with

value of MSN Handle of Person x of group "somegroup"

and

properties of Yahoo handle of person 10 of group "Friends"

will give you...

{{value:"somename", id:"D780F1AF-4B69-11D7-AD1E-000393D76A82", label:"work", class:Yahoo handle}}

yet...

properties of MSN handle of person 10 of group "Friends"

gives you...

{{value:"anothername", id:"CD065E40-4B69-11D7-AD1E-000393D76A82", label:"work", class:email}}

where the class is different (class:Yahoo handle vs. class:email). Obviously, this is one of those bug things. But has anyone gotten a script to work for adding a Handle to an existing record or when making a new record?

Or am I screwed?

I've tried

make new Yahoo handle with properties {{value:"wonderful", label:"work"}} at person 10 of group "Friends"
make new Yahoo handle with data "somedata" at person 10 of group "Friends"
make new Yahoo handle at person 7 of group "Friends" (hoping for a reference returned - no luck)

Any help is welcomed.
