| Hi,
On a somewhat related subject;
Is there a simple command that will do this (convert WakeUpTime to an integer), and probably quicker?
set WakeUpTime to "6:31" set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ":" set WakeUpTime to my decoupe(WakeUpTime) as integer display dialog WakeUpTime
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "" -- restore
on decoupe(t) -- t = time set {h, m} to text items of t set timeNumber to ((m as integer) + ((h as integer) * 60)) * 60 return timeNumber as integer end decoupe

To meet these criteria you can set the month to any 31-day month (January, March, May, July, August, October, or December), or set the day to any number between 1 and 28 inclusive.
So, it would seems that this handler is safe ...
on getAsDate(theYear, theMonth, theDay) set theDate to (current date) set day of theDate to 1 set month of theDate to theMonth set day of theDate to theDay return theDate end getAsDate
If you need it, add hours, minutes, seconds.
