Hi Paul -
It wasn't clear, but it appears that you may have inadvertently tried
to enter some AppleScript code in the REALbasic IDE.
Try this:
Open the Applescript Script Editor and enter this code:
on run {theText}
display dialog theText
end run
Save this script with the name "TestScript".
Drag this script into your REALbasic project.
Put this line of code in a button (or somewhere appropriate):
TestScript "hello"
in case you want this in the future, here's an example of how to
return a value from an AppleScript:
AppleScript code:
on run {x}
return x * 2
end run
REALbasic code:
MsgBox testScript("3") //Even though we're dealing with numbers
everything is passed as strings.
Hope this helps, David
