You can't open it in the editor anymore if you click run only. If
you didn't save it as an application, then it's useless. I
discovered this by accident. Once you click ruun only, you need to
save as to make it an application, because if it's saved as a scrit,
but run only is checked, the script editor can't do anything ith it,
because it always tries to open it before letting you run it.
Nothing to do but rewrite the thhing from scratch *grumble* I lost a
rather elaborate time script this way. The one I posted to the list
was my written from scratch to replace the one I'd lost this way.
There really should be some warning before the editor allows yoou to
do this, since there's no possible way to use the script when this is
done. Actually, it shouldn't allow it at all, since it basically
creates an unusable file <sigh>

Ok, I'm not sure why this happens sometimes and not others. I have
some scripts that were saved as "run only"; when I click on them
they run. But I have one in particular right now that just gets me
a script editor error saying it can't open because I saved it as
"run only". I don't have another copy of this script. Is there a
way to get it to run instead of trying to open? If not, is there a
way to get at it to re-save it or in some other way reverse the
"run only"? Actually, I only want it to run; I don't need to open
it but it appears I can't do either now.
