I'm Hoping Emmanuel (or anyone) can help... I'm having a weird problem
with the change command in Satimage.osax.
If I try this (say, in Smile):
set bf to "hello world"
change "hello" to "goodbye" in bf
then I get a predictable result. If I paste this script into a
FileMaker text field:
set bf to cell "_buffer"
change "hello" to "goodbye" in bf
set cell "_buffer" to bf
and use FileMaker's Perform AppleScript command to execute the script
in the field, I cannot get the "change" to work, not even on a simple
literal change-one-word-into-another replacement. If I substitute the
middle line of the above script with some other action (eg, "set bf to
word 1 of bf") then it works, so it's not an issue with the variable or
the field addressing. It seems to be specific to the Satimage command.
