Hi Everyone:

I was wondering if it possible to create a script that will execute a group of scripts? For example, I frequently use a text cleanup script, a Quark to InDesign script, a file export to PDF script, etc...
I would like to execute all of the scripts together, but keep these scripts in separate files, so they are easier to find later. I know I can apply a keyboard shortcut to start a script, but what I'm thinking of is trying to re-use scripts, so that if they should change for some reason, I only have to update them once, instead of the 50 other scripts that they were copied into.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks!
Theresa
