Title: Re: funny bug
Hello

At 12h13, I posted about an odd behaviour which is not flagged as an error.

Now, I post about an error message issued when there is no error.

set t_name to "testIfEmpty"

tell application "Numbers" to tell document 1 to tell sheet 1
if not (exists table t_name) then
make
new table with properties {name:t_name, row count:1, column count:1}
end if
set
tProps to get properties of table t_name

set nbr to (row count of tProps) - 1
if nbr > 0 then
try
repeat
nbr times
delete
row 1 of table t_name
end repeat
on
error errMsg number errNbr
display dialog "error number : " & errNbr & return & errMsg
end try
end
if

set nbr to (column count of tProps) - 1
if nbr > 0 then
repeat
nbr times
delete
column 1 of table t_name
end repeat
end
if

end tell

When the dialog displaying the error message, click OK.
The script will continue and the extraneous row and column are correctly removed.

Isn't that a funny bug ?

The behaviour is the same under 10.4.11 and 10.6.3

Yvan, your script works as expected. It throw an error message because there is an error, when your script try to delete the last row, remove the try block and see what happen
