  • Thread-topic: About keychain scripting

Hi,
 
I'm just wondering something... When creating a new key in AS for Keychain it should go\
 
tell application "Keychain Access"
make new key with name "my key name"
end tell
 
What I want to know is how I'm supposed to format the name that I type in... It states in the Keychain scripting dictionnary that I have to put in things in this format:
 
name string ...
 
How should I put in the string ? If I try siomply putting it in quotes it won't accept it It simply states when I try to compile that it expects another parameter but found " If I don't put quotes in, then it states that it found an identifier...
If I set "mykeyname" as string, and put in the string  name this way:
 
set my_data to "my keyname" as string
 
and then use my_data:
 
tell application "Keychain Access"
make new key with name " & my_data & "
end tell
 
It doesn't work either... Any idea what I'm doing wrong ?
Also would like to know what would be the best way to write the script to put in all they key properties... What would I need to put in to put them all after "make new key" ???
 
Thanks
Frank
