I opened ScriptEditor and put in the following: property theCount : 0 set theCount to theCount + 1 display dialog "The value of theCount is: " & theCount as string If you 'Run' this over and over the dialog displays an ever increasing number. If you recompile it goes back to 1. I then saved it, but there are a couple of options including 'Application' or 'Application Bundle', I used 'Application'. This produced a single file, I tried to 'cntrl-click' to 'Show Package Contents', but this did not come up, so this wasn't a case of an Application Bundle (a folder appearing to be a file). I then quit ScriptEditor and double clicked on my newly created App. It came up with a dialog with the number 1 and then self quit. I double clicked on it again and it said 2, etc etc. The Modification Time of the file changed with each running of the App. Maybe that horse isn't quite dead yet ;-) _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
