The Mac version of Yahoo! Messenger won't allow you to send to multiple recipients, but obviously, you can send the same message several times to various people. I want Applescript to automate this, but can't get it to send a second message in the same script.
Here's a stripped down version of a script:
tell application "Yahoo! Messenger"
SendMessage "Hello" to "friend1" from "mol_jim"
SendMessage "Hello" to "friend2" from "mol_jim"
end tell
This sends the first message fine, but returns the following error instead of sending the second message:
"Yahoo! Messenger got an error: \"Hello\" doesn't understand the SendMessage message."
I have tried using different messages, tried saving the message as a variable or two different variables. I have tried putting each command into a separate tell block. I have tried putting commands to other applications in between. I always get the same message when it tries to send the second message.
Any ideas on how I can get Messenger to view the two SendMessage commands as separate requests?
Thanks,
Jim Moss
