>>I see the problem now:

>Doug>Scope issue.

For the sake of clarity, I wouldn't call it a scope issue. That generally
refers to the accessibility of variables within various parts of a script.

For example, the scope of a global variable or a property encompasses the
entire script and all its handlers, while the scope of a local variable is
contained within the handler where it's used.

A terminology conflict is an entirely different issue.

It means that the developer has chosen to use a term in their application
dictionary that is also used in the standard additions OSAX.

The term "read" is used in Entourage to indicate if the state of a message
is "read" (as apposed to unread) and the "read" used as a verb in SA OSAX to
read a file.
