Hello,
I am struggling with a Palm Desktop applescript that I am writing. I am
hoping that you can point me in the right direction.
The overall goal of my software project is to automate the process of
exporting Palm Desktop Date Book data in vcal format. Based on the
updated Palm Desktop 4.1 Applescript Dictionary, it appears that
issuing "export" as a direct command is no longer an option. I
therefore decided to try looping through all of the events in the Date
Book in order to turn them into vcal entries.
The applescript that I have been able to develop so far has been mostly
successful with two important exceptions:
- I am unable to extract any repeat rules (RRULE) and/or exception
dates (EXDATE) for insertion into my vcal entries.
- I am also unable to extract any information about attachments to any
of my Date Book events.
In other words, it seems that I am only able to retrieve information
about the initial instance of any recurring event in my Date Book. What
is the proper method for extracting the recurrance information (and,
for that matter, attachment information) for a Date Book event?
I should point out that I am a neophyte applescript programmer.
