Quicktime remove recent files

Hi there - i am trying to write a script that will remove the recent file list from quicktime. I have found a snippet of code by someone who has created
a script to do something similar in safari but i can’t get the result i need in quicktime player??? I have GUI scripting enabled but can anyone point me in the right direction? (Mac OS x 10.4.5 Quicktime 7.0.4 pro)

The Safari script =

tell application "Safari"
	activate
end tell
tell application "System Events"
	tell application process "Safari"
		click menu item "Empty Cache." of menu 1 of menu bar item "Safari" of menu bar 1
		delay 1
		click button "Empty" of window 1
		delay 1
		click menu item "Reset Safari." of menu 1 of menu bar item "Safari" of menu bar 1
		delay 1
		click button "Reset" of window 1
	end tell
end tell

so i thought if i change the variables for quicktime i would get…

tell application "System Events"
	tell application process "Quicktime Player"
		click menu item "Clear Menu" of menu 1 of menu bar item "Open Recent" of menu bar 1 "File"
	end tell
end tell

But it doesn’t work and i get an error message??? PS can anyone tell me what the numbers refer to in the ‘menu 1 item’ string

Many thanks in advance

Moving to OS X forum.

That works great - thanks for this! :slight_smile:
