Simple Script works on 10.6 but not 10.5.8

Hi,
Brand new to Applescript...I made a simple script (saved as an application) to rename Excel Sheet Tabs and it works on my MBP (10.6.2) however when I try sharing with other users (10.5.8), it fails to carry out properly. It opens a blank workbook rather than the "test.xls" workbook and won't go any further. Am thinking it might be due to:
1) where the script and .xls file were originally created/saved?
2) 10.6.2 vs. 10.5.8?
3) method of sharing? Tried attaching to Mac OSX Server Wiki, NAS and e-mailing but still wouldn't work.
here's the script-
tell application "Microsoft Excel"
try
open workbook workbook file name "test.xls"
activate object worksheet "names"
set myRange to range "A2" of worksheet "names"
set myName to input box prompt "Please type a Student Name" title "Students"
set value of myRange to myName
set name of sheet 3 to myName
set myRange to range "A3" of worksheet "names"
set myName to input box prompt "Please type a Student Name" title "Students"
set value of myRange to myName
set name of sheet 4 to myName
set myRange to range "A4" of worksheet "names"
set myName to input box prompt "Please type a Student Name" title "Students"
set value of myRange to myName
set name of sheet 5 to myName
set myRange to range "A5" of worksheet "names"
set myName to input box prompt "Please type a Student Name" title "Students"
set value of myRange to myName
set name of sheet 6 to myName
set myRange to range "A6" of worksheet "names"
set myName to input box prompt "Please type a Student Name" title "Students"
set value of myRange to myName
set name of sheet 7 to myName
set myRange to range "A7" of worksheet "names"
set myName to input box prompt "Please type a Student Name" title "Students"
set value of myRange to myName
set name of sheet 8 to myName
set myRange to range "A8" of worksheet "names"
set myName to input box prompt "Please type a Student Name" title "Students"
set value of myRange to myName
set name of sheet 9 to myName
set myRange to range "A9" of worksheet "names"
set myName to input box prompt "Please type a Student Name" title "Students"
set value of myRange to myName
set name of sheet 10 to myName
set myRange to range "A10" of worksheet "names"
set myName to input box prompt "Please type a Student Name" title "Students"
set value of myRange to myName
set name of sheet 11 to myName
set myRange to range "A11" of worksheet "names"
set myName to input box prompt "Please type a Student Name" title "Students"
set value of myRange to myName
set name of sheet 12 to myName
end try
end tell
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated! THANKS!

  • Short, basic VB script works on 2003 Server but not on 2012 R2 server

    Hello all,
    Hopefully I'm posting this in the right place. I have a legacy VB script that I need to keep, but I'm having trouble getting it to work on Server 2012 R2.
    The script reads a file called "Test.txt" that contains the following string:
    String1|String2
    Part of the VB script is to read this "Test.txt" file and parse this line into 2 separate elements based upon the "|" delimeter:
    On Error Resume Next
    Dim FSI, inputFile, String, f, WshShell,WshNetwork, WshFSO, StringArray
    inputFile = "Test.txt"
    CONST ForReading = 1, ForWriting = 2, ForAppending = 8
    Set FSI = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set f = FSI.OpenTextFile(inputFile, ForReading, True)
    Set WshShell=WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
    '********* Read the file ********
    String = f.ReadLine
    msgbox("String: "&string)
    '********* Split the line *******
    StringArray = Split(String,"|", -1, 1)
    msgbox("stringarray(0): "&stringarray(0))
    msgbox("stringarray(1): "&stringarray(1))
    The variables in this script when ran on Server 2003 are:
    string = String1|String2
    stringarray(0) = String1
    stringarray(1) = String2
    So this script parses the String1|String2 line perfectly on Server 2003. However, running this same VB script on Server 2012 R2 results in very strange output:
    The variables in this script when ran on Server 2012 R2 are:
    string = ӱƥt
    stringarray(0) = ӱƥt
    stringarray(1) =
    Is there anything on Server 2012 R2 that I need to install to get this to work in VB, or what is the issue with Server 2012 R2 and visual basic? I'd LOVE to redo this in PowerShell but I need to keep it Visual Basic for legacy reasons for a few more months.

    Hmm interesting. I tried using the 3 different "format" parameters for the OpenTextFile method, and none of them worked on Server 2012 R2:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa265347(v=vs.60).aspx
    However, I copied the text file directly from the 2003 server and placed it on the 2012 R2 server, and then the script worked great!
    Thanks for steering me in the right direction Bill!

  • Script works for one frame but not another

    I set up 2 keyframes, each one loads a different text file
    into a dynamic text box. The text box for the first keyframe is
    named "session" and the text box for the second keyframe is named
    "oneptq". The text file for the first text box is named Titles.txt
    and the text file for the second keyframe is 100Q.txt. The code I'm
    using is identical (except for the respective names of the text
    boxes and text files) but for some reason the text will load in the
    first text box but not the second.
    Here's my AS for the first keyframe:
    lvLoader = new LoadVars();
    lvLoader.onLoad = function(success)
    if(success)
    session.text = lvLoader.textbody;
    lvLoader.load("Titles.txt");
    And my AS for the second keyframe:
    lvLoader = new LoadVars();
    lvLoader.onLoad = function(success)
    if(success)
    oneptq.text = lvLoader.textbody;
    lvLoader.load("100Q.txt");
    I can't figure this thing out. Please help. Thanks.

    Have you double checked that it's a DYNAMIC text box? Maybe
    it was accidentally swapped by to static at some point...

  • Simple JS works in Acrobat 7, but not 8 - why?

    I have a simple form with 2 fields: "myname" and "phone". "myname" is a drop down list populated with 3 names. I want to be able to populate the "phone" field with a phone number corresponding to the "myname" field automatically.
    I have the following JS attached to the calculate event of the myname field. This works perfect in Acrobat 7.0.9, but does not work at all in Acrobat 8.0 professional or Adobe Reader 8. Does anyone know why?
    switch (myname.rawValue){
    case "Beth Voigt" :
    phone.rawValue = "431-3833";
    break;
    case "Bobbie Hartfiel" :
    phone.rawValue = "431-2019";
    break;
    case "Dave Brown" :
    phone.rawValue = "431-2448";
    break;
    default : phone.rawValue = "";
    event.newText = myname.rawValue;

    I was just asking where those scripts are located.

  • Scroll script works in Flash 6, but not in 9

    I have a simple scroller script that works fine for scrolling
    a movieclip in Flash 6, but when I publish in anything later, it no
    longer scrolls. Both are set to AS2. Is there an obvious reason
    that anyone can see of why this should be? When I test the script
    syntax in the actions panel, it says there are no errors in the
    script. By tracing I can see that there's no trouble with targeting
    the up and down buttons or scroll slider, and the slider still
    drags, but the content MC doesn't move as it should. Thank you very
    much for your help, in advance. Here's the script, in case the
    answer isn't obvious from the description:

    You were right! It works now, even as posted above. I just
    remembered I had fixed an upper/lower case inconsistency just for
    neatness since I last tested, never thinking that would fix the
    problem! I just tested again and to my surprise, it works great. I
    guess neatness does count!!! Thanks again, kglad!

  • PHP Script works in Chrome, IE9 but not in Firefox 15

    This page is a PHP script for creating hyperlinks to all files in a directory:
    http://www.checktheevidence.co.uk/audio/index.php?dir=&sort=date&order=desc
    It works fine in IE9 and Chrome, but Firefox "give up" about 3/4 way down the listing the hyperlinks for the files are no longer shown. Weird stuff.
    This issue has been present for a long time

    It's not pretty, is it. The problem is that your page opens <strong> tags without closing them. For example:
    <div>
    &lt;a href="Victoria Derbyshire Cuts off Police Constable talking about The Club in the Police - Radio 5 Live - 13 Sep 2012.mp3" class="w"><b>&lt;strong></b>Victoria Derbyshire Cuts off Police Constable talking about The Club in the Police - Radio 5 Live - 13 Sep 2012.mp3 &lt;/a>
    (1.5 MB) (Modified: Sep 17 2012 11:06:37 PM)
    &lt;/div>
    This causes Firefox to "nest" tags in the page past a maximum depth. After that point, it just dumps text to the page. Similar/related past threads:
    * [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/846246 Part way through a particular web page, HTML stops being rendered]
    * [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/929969 text is missing from webpage]
    So just a small fix to your PHP and you should be good to go.

  • Script works in one frame, but not with frames before it

    Hi all-
    I'm a complete AS/Flash n00b, but hoping that I can get some guidance on this.
    I'm trying to test a very simple function for an e-learning module that is to train people on using 'quick keys' or key combinations on their keyboard. Basically, I want to show them a command and have them practice. In the practice, they will be asked to use a command and then have to do it on their keyboard.
    I used the code below successfully with one frame and a couple layers. I created a text-area ("traceArea), put it on the stage, set up the event and function... it works great! (although I'm sure the code isn't very pretty) When anything other than ctrl-p is pressed, it traces the "Try again!" message and when ctrl-p is pressed, "Great job!" pops up.
    stop();
    stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, detectKey);
    function detectKey(event:KeyboardEvent):void
    if (event.ctrlKey== true && event.keyCode==80 )
    traceArea.text = "Great job!";
    else
    traceArea.text = "Try again!";
    So, then I tried to build on to the file and added two frames before the previous AS code.
    Frame 1 - Intro
    A short introduction to the 'module' with a continue button. The code for this frame is:
    stop();
    continueBtn1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,buttonPressed);
    function buttonPressed(event:MouseEvent)
    nextFrame();
    Frame 2 - Instructions
    This frame shows the viewer the correct keys to use to print (ctrl-p). There is another continue button here. Code:
    stop();
    continueBtn2.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,buttonPressed);
    The last frame is then the 'practice' (see first code above).
    When I run this file, there are no errors, but when it gets to that last frame, nothing is traced and there is no output on any keyboard command. I know the solution must be pretty easy, but I'm missing it and have no idea what it might be!
    Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
    -Andy

    use the trace function to debug your flash code:
    stop();
    stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, detectKey);
    function detectKey(event:KeyboardEvent):void
    trace(event);
    if (event.ctrlKey== true && event.keyCode==80 )
    traceArea.text = "Great job!";
    else
    traceArea.text = "Try again!";

  • Script works fine in CC but not CS5- Any tips?

    So i have this script that detects instances of XXXXXXXX and turns them into hyperlinks. It works fine in InDesign CC however won't play nice in CS5.

  • Flex mobile 4.6 app works inside flash builder but not in android emulator

    Originally posted on stackoverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8663892/flex-mobile-4-6-app-works-inside-flash-builder- but-not-in-android-emulator
    I have a basic flex mobile 4.6 app and it works fully fine in the flash builder built-in emulator using an android device profile like aria...
    It also launches fine in the android emulator but one particular view shows blank (and this view works fine in flash builder).
    Before I get in to many details of the view are there any categorical gotchas that can be causing this?
    I can't seem to get the trace statements from the app to show in 'adb logcat'. It seems I need to compile a debug version of the apk but I don't know how to do this. I use the 'Export Release Build' from the Project menu in flash builder and it doesn't seem to have an option for debug=true.
    The problematic/blank view basically uses the stagewebview and iotashan's oauth library to call linkedin rest apis... A different (and working) view can make restful web service calls in the emulator fine, so it doesn't seem to be an internet permission.
    The source code contained in the problematic/blank view is almost identical to the tutorial found at:http://www.riagora.com/2011/01/air-and-linkedin/
    The differences are: a) The root tag is a View b) I use StageWebView instead of HtmlContainer c) I use my own linkedin key and tokens.
    I would appreciate it if someone can provide me with some pointers on how to troubleshoot this situation. Perhaps someone can tell me how to debug the app while running in the emulator (I think I need the correct adt command arguments for this which matches the 'Export Release Build' menu but adds the debug param?)
    Thanks for your help in advance.
    Comment Added:
    I suspect that this has to do with connections to https:// api.linkedin.com and https:// www.linkedin.com. The only reason I can think of that the same code is not having issues inside of Flex Builder but indeed having issues in the Android emulator is something to do with certificates. Any ideas?

    Thanks er453r,
    I have created a project that clearly reproduces the bug.  Here are the steps:
    1) Create a UrlLoader and point it to https://www.google.com (HTTPS is important because http works but HTTPS does not)
    2) Load it
    3) Run in Flash Builder 4.6/Air 3.1 and then run in Android emulator.  The former works with an http status 200.  The latter gives you an ioerror 2032.  I am assuming what works in Flash Builder is supposed to work in the Android Emulator and what what works in the emulator is supposed to work in a physical device (plus or minus boundary conditions).
    I see a certificate exception in adb logcat but not sure if it's related...
    Here is the self contained View code which works with a TabbedViewNavigatorApplication:

  • Actionscript works in IDE,projector but not SWF

    Hello, I'm atempting to create a swf that loads in a
    controller swf and accesses some of the information contained
    within the load swf. My main timeline is pretty simple.
    var preloader_mc:MovieClip =
    this.createEmptyMovieClip("preloader_mc",
    this.getNextHighestDepth());
    var labelcontainer:MovieClip =
    this.createEmptyMovieClip("container", this.getNextHighestDepth());
    var label:TextField = labelcontainer.createTextField("label",
    1, 0, 365, 150, 20);
    var TOCcontainer:MovieClip =
    this.createEmptyMovieClip("TOCcontainer",
    this.getNextHighestDepth());
    var TOClabel:TextField =
    TOCcontainer.createTextField("TOClabel", 1, 0, 300, 150, 20);
    then I have an onenter frame function that access the
    variable contained within the loaded swf.
    loadMovie("xml_controller.swf", preloader_mc);
    onEnterFrame = function () {
    vTime =
    this.preloader_mc.container.controlBar.timeView.label.value;
    this.label.text = vTime
    When I test the movie I see the time displayed and everything
    is ok. When I create a projector file I see the time display. When
    I try to run the swf, in a browser or straight from explorer All I
    see is undefined for the values.
    Anybody have any ideas why this would work in two
    environments but not the third?

    I saw this issue with a website I did. Sometimes the code
    would work no problem in the projector but fail when I published to
    the site.
    Does the xml_controller.swf refer to _root anywhere? If you
    have not locked the root and there is something it needs to access
    locally it won't be able to find the item because the _root it is
    referring to is now the load.swf movie

  • How do I troubleshoot installation/distribution of a LabVIEW .exe which processes data using Matlab when it works on some computers but not others?

    I've been given the unenviable task of troubleshooting and installing/distributing software written by a former co-worker. I've modified the LabVIEW code and built an .exe file. I've successfully installed the Labview .exe file on several computers, but it won't work on some others. What's more baffling is that I installed it successfully on one computer, uninstalled it, and tried reinstalling it with no success. In fact, it's a new error (Dr. Watson for Windows NT application error). It doesn't help that I have different versions of LabVIEW and Matlab on the target computers. Some have LabVIEW 5.1, some
    have 5.0, and some don't have it at all. Some have Matlab 5.2, some have 5.3 (R11) and some have 6.0 (R12). It's also not clear to me where the Matlab m files should be located. I'm not sure if it's a LabVIEW Runtime Engine problem, or if it's a Matlab problem. I've also wondered how LabVIEW and Matlab talk to each other. When LabVIEW calls Matlab, it seems that Matlab is running in the background. In other words, clicking on the Matlab Command Window and typing "whos" or any other command/variable doesn't work.

    Poke around zone.ni.com and

  • Site works in the app, but not in the browser.

    Hello iWeb experts,
    I've got problems.
    Last night I published my site. And while it appears, and functions, properly in my iWeb app, it doesn't do the same in Safari, Firefox, and Internet Explorer.
    Two issues...
    FONTS
    I chose Bellamie, Univers Condensed, and Marydale as my fonts. From reading these forums, I've discovered those won't wysiwyg on other computers if the fonts aren't available and open on them. So my two choices are to make every bit of text a graphic or to use a set of more universal fonts, correct? So my questions are...One, is there a list somewhere of fonts that will work in any browser? And, two, is there a short-cut, or easy way to transform type into a graphic without having to create image files?
    FUNCTIONS
    Here are the functions that work fine in iWeb but have gone haywire in all of the browsers I tested...
    • The type in one nav link appears smaller than all the rest.
    • Some links are active, others are not.
    • Rollover highlighting works on some links, but not others.
    • Most of the rollover links appear in the proper static color, a few do not.
    I've tested these functions on three Macs, one PC, and in the three browsers mentioned above. All of them show the exact same problems. So something must be going wrong with iWebs coding, or my host server musn't like iWeb.
    Any thoughts, suggestions on these two issues? Thanks much for any advice.
    John

    Fascinating, Kirk (+he types with one raised eyebrow+).

    When I drag across your page most of your links do not change. The "text" portion of them doesn't change, either. Something is covering them.
    I can see that. But for the life of me, I don't know what could be covering those links. In my app, when I click in the area of the links, the type is the first item selected. Unless, possibly, it could somehow be the faint reflection of my black-and-white image (me & the ground I stand on). Hmmm...

    Single click (outside the boundaries of your page contents) and an "outline" will appear. It shows the image file dimensions and locations.
    This I don't see. An outline? As in "an object outline," or as in "a list of dimensions and locations?" When I click outside my page contents, I get nothing.
    Thanks, QTK. I truly appreciate your troubleshooting here.
