Google is your friend.
on error errorMsg
do something with errorMsg
Is there a way to set a scrollable area for the output rather than a tall
dialog?
show dialog "Your error : " & errorMsg
This does ok. I kind of like this:
show dialog "Your error: " default answer errorMsg
BUT I want to set a height to this. Is it possible?
