You might also take a look at http://www.documentation.com/applescript/applescript.html, which is not an apple site, but a third party (Cambridge Publications) who has done a lot with the language. As for beginning books, my favorite is _The Tao of Applescript_, published by BMUG. You might also check out the Mac Programming forum on Delphi (www.delphi.com, in the Computing area) where we are in the early stages (had our second meeting tonight :) of a beginning scripting course that meets Wednesdays at 930 PM EST in the chat room. Hope this helps. -- Regards, Ed mailto:ereppert@syndicomm.com mailto:blackshoe@delphi.com
