Re: can this be simplified?
| Simpler, but it doesn't work exactly the same way your first script did. But if it works for you, you can lose a couple lines...
set JobBagName to (the clipboard as text) set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {"_"} set JobBagName to "" & words of JobBagName as text set JobBagFinalName to text returned of (display dialog "Name of New Job Bag - Nouveau Dossier" default answer JobBagName buttons {"OK", "Cancel"} default button 1) set destination to choose folder with prompt "Select Folder for Job Folder Creation - Destination du Nouveau Dossier" tell application "Finder" set TheNewJobBag to make new folder with properties {name:JobBagFinalName} at destination make folder with properties {name:"SourcesClient_" & JobBagFinalName} at TheNewJobBag open TheNewJobBag end tell
Here's another version that may be simpler for your users:
set JobBagName to (the clipboard as text) set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {"_"} set JobBagName to "" & words of JobBagName as text set newJobBag to (choose file name with prompt "Select Folder for Job Folder Creation - Destination du Nouveau Dossier" default name JobBagName) as text set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {":"} set JobBagFinalName to the last text item of newJobBag set destination to ((text items 1 thru -2 of newJobBag) as text as alias) tell application "Finder" set TheNewJobBag to make new folder with properties {name:JobBagFinalName} at destination make folder with properties {name:"SourcesClient_" & JobBagFinalName} at TheNewJobBag open TheNewJobBag end tell
