I hope I can describe my situation in a way that makes sense. I use a method to have different sounds played when mail arrives from different sources. It helps me know whether or not to interrupt whatever else I am doing to take a look at the new incoming message.
The problem is that my workflow is interrupted in a minor way because my current rule invokes a script which leaves the Finder active. Is there any way to tell the script which application is currently active & frontmost and to then re-activate it? Here's what happens now: 1. A message arrives, prompting the rule. 2. It is moved to another folder (Deleted items) 3. An Applescript then is invoked which is a hybrid of "Play Sound" & "Save As Text". The message is converted to text, moved to a folder on my drive which is then later used by Digest Viewer. A sound of my choice is played. This is using OS 10.1.5, and Entourage version 10.1.0 (2006) I can, of course, post the entire script, but it is a long one. I really only need guidance on the question of keeping my current app active, whatever it might be at the moment. -- Thomas S.
