Hi,

i´m beginning to start with Apple Script LEOPARD.
I have scripted few lines and dont understand why the script will stopped.

here the script:

set Datei to choose file
tell application “Adobe Acrobat Professional” open Datei
find text string “01.07.08”
select text “01.07.08”
end tell

I want that the Script will open a PDF Dokument an search the date 01.07.08.
When it found then select the date.

no more.

But the Script will break by the line find text.

Can someone help.

Thanks

I do not have Acrobat installed on my Mac, but I guess you have to address the opened document in your code to get it to work:


set Datei to choose file
tell application "Adobe Acrobat Professional"
open Datei
tell document 1
find text string "01.07.08"
select text "01.07.08"
end tell
end tell
