Hi!
I'm embarrassed that my first post must be something obvious, but an
hour of searching the list archives gives me no joy. I've downloaded
& installed a couple of scripting additions, yet I can't access their
commands from my scripts. Some info: Mac OS X 10.3.7, Akua Sweets
1.4.3, Satimage 2.5.9
I've installed the SAs in /Library/Scripting Additions. I've tried
quitting & re-launching Script Editor. I've tried logging out & in.
I've tried rebooting. I've tried installing them in
~/Library/Scripting Additions. Smile 2.5.9 recognizes that they are
installed (they show up in dictionary submenu for scripting
additions). Script Editor shows them when I choose to open their
dictionaries.
However, code I write doesn't compile. Even something simple like...
set versionInquiry to Akua Version
Error: (A property can't go after this identifier)
...or...
mutter "Hello, How are you?"
Error: (A " can't go after this identifier)
...fails. The exact code I'm interested in running is:
tell "Microsoft Entourage"
set nameList to name of every category
set idList to ID of every category
end tell
set bothLists to order list nameList synchronizing idList -- Uses
Akua Sweets
Error: (Expected end of line, etc. but found class name)
Can anyone tell me what I've overlooked?
Thanks,
Brad
