Stu, Max --

I have to second Olav's position: I'm a graphic designer, and I'm learning AppleScript through trial and error. I have InDy on 2 machines, a Mac and a Compaq. I know that a lot of my scripts would perform quicker on the Windows machine using VB, but I am intimidated by the structure & odd nomenclature (what the heck is a "idParagraph.Move idAtEnd, idTextFrame.ParentStory "?).

All of my scripts are written by me, for me, and will never be seen by anyone else. They vastly improve my efficiency, even if they would make my girlfriend (who is a programmer)gag in disgust.

The good news is that this has kindled in me an interest in programming. Community College, here I come... [grin]

Jay
