Hi,

I'll try again, without all the typos that were in the last go around.

The script, below, stops selecting the expected space at space 5. But manually pressing the keys "6" and "7" work as expected. The "Tell app "Finder" seems to have no effect.

tell application "Finder"
	tell application "System Events"
		activate
		delay 1
		set x to 18
		key code x using control down # Move to desktop 1
		repeat with i from 1 to 7
			tell application "System Events" to key code x using control down
			delay 1
			beep
			display dialog x
			set x to x + 1
		end repeat
	end tell
end tell

Additional notes as run from Smile and Script Editor:
key code 18 = space 1
key code 19 = space 2
key code 21 = space 4
key code 22 = space 6
key code 23 = space 5
key code 24 = no change
key code 25 = no change

Has Apple (Sierra) butchered this or what?
