Hello!
I want to pass a name of an app to which tell a command in a string variable and then do some stuff.
But if, for example, I try to retrieve a value of a two-word property, I receive a compile time error.
-- works Ok
tell app "Microsoft Excel"
return display alerts
end tell
-- doesn't compile
set appName to "Microsoft Excel"
tell app appName
return display alerts
end tell
How can I make the second script compilable?
Thank you. _______________________________________________
