I'm trying to do some manipulating of some text. For
some reason I can't get exactly what I want out of
it.... Its driving me a little nuts. Is there some
rule I have forgotten about?????
set x to "OCT 05 @St. Louis" as text
set v to word 4 of x
return v
why does the result of this scipt = "St". I need
"@St." It always drops the @ and the period.....
even if I start delimiting I get weird stuff
happening. what works on 10.2.8 (home) doesn't work
on 10.4.4 (work)
what the heck!!
