Hello Fellow Scripters:

I want to make a list of records. My code (which doesn't work at this point) looks something like this:

set mylist to {}

set newrec to {name: "A", field1:"B", field2:"C"}

set mylist to mylist & newrec
set newrec to {name: "D", field1:"E", field2:"F"}

set mylist to mylist & newrec
etc.

According to the Applescript PDF, what the operator does to the expression on the right depends upon what is on the left. If it is a list, then it adds the expression on the right as an item. If it is a record, then it adds new fields from the right to the left without changing values in fields on the left.

All my code seems to do is add the first record to the list and then stop, which leads me to believe that it does not see mylist as a list on the first round. What am I doing wrong?
