In using the new applescript features in Endnote X1, I’ve come across an example script involving the “highlight” command that does not work.
I obtained the following script from the example documentation:
tell application “EndNote X1”
set res to find “dinosaur”
highlight first document records in res
end tell
When run, applescript returns the following error message: “EndNote got an error: Some parameter is missing for highlight.”
Can someone explain what I am doing wrong?
Ultimately, I’d like to use applescript to access the DOI field of a record, then direct my browser to the respective URL at dx.doi.org. Ideally this would be the selected record, and I am hoping to use the highlight command to somehow do this. Ideally there would be a “selection” object or “selected” property that could be accessed, but I can’t find it.
