Well, this is very odd:
It runs just fine in Script Debugger 3.0.8 without the 'get'.
In Smile 2.5.9, it errors "Can't get h of testRecord' without the
'get', but
runs fine with the 'get'.
In Script Editor 2.0, it errors "AppleScript Error:
NSCannotCreateScriptCommandError" both with and without the 'get'.
Which is absurd. A standard addition command (run script) should not
depend
on which editor is running it.
What if you run it from an application or a script menu?
Good question, Michelle. At first, I put my own peculiar results down
to testing in 10.2.8. However, Paul's analysis highlighted some
interesting differences. The following script gave me the results
indicated below - regardless of whether 'get' was used:
--------------------------------
set r to {h:"Height", w:"Width"}
set i to {1, "h", 2}'s item 2
display dialog (run script "(parent's r)'s " & i)
--------------------------------
Script Editor --> [error] "NSCannotCreateScriptCommandError"
Script Menu --> No result (the above error still occurs - but is not
reported here)
Application --> [dialog] "Height"
