Due to restrictions of the sandbox, the MacScript command can no longer invoke other applications such as the Finder. Therefore we discourage the use of this command. For cases which require changing your existing code so it doesn’t use MacScript, you can use the AppleScriptTask command (see below). The new AppleScriptTask command executes an AppleScript script. This similar to the MacScript command except that it runs an AppleScript file located outside the sandboxed app. Call AppleScriptTask as follows: Dim myScriptResult as String myScriptResult = AppleScriptTask ('MyAppleScriptFile.applescript', 'myapplescripthandler', 'my parameter string') Where: • The “MyAppleScript.applescript” file must be in ~/Library/Application Scripts/[bundle id]/, the extension applescript is not mandatory,.scpt may also be used • “myapplescripthandler” is the name of a script handler in the MyAppleScript.applescript file • “my parameter string” is the single input parameter to the “myapplescripthandler” script handler.
