Title: Re: Script to archive Notes
Here is a script that will do it:
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
set theNotes to notes
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {return}
set notesList to {}
repeat with aNote in theNotes
set thisNote to {name of aNote, content of aNote}
set theCats to category of aNote
if theCats ≠ {} then
set catList to "Categories: "
repeat with aCat in theCats
set catList to catList & name of aCat
end repeat
set end of thisNote to catList as text
end if
set theProjs to project list of aNote
if theProjs ≠ {} then
set projList to "Projects: "
repeat with aProj in theProjs
set projList to projList & name of aProj
end repeat
copy projList as text to end of thisNote
end if
copy thisNote as text to end of notesList
end repeat
end tell
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to {return & "==========================" & return & return}
set filePath to ((path to desktop) as text) & "Notes Export.txt"
try
set outFile to open for access filePath with write permission
on error errnum
try
close access outFile
end try
display dialog "An error Occurred - error number: " & errnum
return
end try
write (notesList as text) to outFile starting at 0
close access outFile
