Anyone remember that techniqe where you can move your scripts to new machines without having the script ask the user to locate an application the first time they run it?
-- Word should be runnning now!
tell application "Finder" -- let's see...
set appName to name of application file id "MSWD"
end tell
tell application "Microsoft Word"
tell application appName
close documents without saving
if exists document "document1" then
close document "document1" without saving
end if
end tell
end tell
… gets you this event log
tell application "Finder"
get name of application file id "MSWD"
"Microsoft Word X v3"
end tell
tell application "Microsoft Word"
close document "temp.txt" of application "Microsoft Word X v3" saving no
"Microsoft Word got an error: Can't get document \"temp.txt\" of application \"Microsoft Word X v3\"."
Can anyone tell me how to word the “close document “document1” without saving” line so it doesn’t get interpreted as referring to “of Microsoft Word X v3”?
