I am using this below which returns a Handle. dim as Handle ASResultH ASResultH = fn AppleScriptGetResult How do I placed the results of the Handle into a container? Previously it was placed into a TEHANDLE and was extracted from that using resultH = fn AppleScriptGetResult long if resultH call TESetText([resultH],fn GetHandleSize( resultH ), tehandle( 1 )) call DisposeHandle( resultH ) End if Container = &teH..hText I would then parse the container to obtain the return results from the AppleScript call. thanks Steve
