I'm not 100% sure if this is what you were referring to but I have found this: http://www.apple.com/applescript/sbrt/sbrt-09.html It refers to writing to files with Applescript. It is taken from the website but it's also included in the book, I just haven't got to that part yet. Hope it helps, Hi Martin.

I have read a chapter recently that opens text files for you, names them and allows you to enter data. As I say, I'm just reading through it for now then I'm going to go back through it again. Hi Martin,

Martin Hi Wayne,

It seems that you are a quick reader making good progress :-)

When I got it I tried going straight to the section I was most interested in, I then realized that I didn't have a clue... :-) Up to chapter 9 now and have noticed there is a lot of referring back to past chapters. I'm not sure what you mean by writing from files or open to access, but feel free to contact me again if I can help in any other way.. Thanx Hi Martin,

But so far, from studying the index and the table of contents, I completely miss a section/chapter about reading and writing from and to files (open for access...). Or am I just blind? Best regards from Germany! P.S.: Sal soghoian is my role model :) I also bought this book and plan to read through it in the next few days.
