At 04:52p -0800 01/23/2004, Matthew Galaher didst inscribe upon an
electronic papyrus:
I wish to call an email address associated with a client code (e.g.
abc), so that if I'm working with client abc it'll bring up the
email address for client manager email@hidden. I can't seems to
use a variable to to call the varible holding the email. Below is
what I'm shooting for. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
set clientName to "abc"
accountmanager_email(clientName)
on accountmanager_email(clientName)
set email_properties to {abc:"email@hidden",
def:"email@hidden", ghi:"email@hidden", jkl:"email@hidden"}
set am_email_address to property of email_properties whose name
is clientName
display dialog am_email_address
end accountmanager_email
1. Your terminology/nomenclature is incorrect. You are talking about a record
-- that is quite different from a property list (aka plist, the XML files
of which Apple is so fond).
2. Whose clauses don't work on records.
3. Because of #2, you'll have to come up with a different structure.
See recent threads about records...
