cebulskis1 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I need a script for the export function that searches the hard drive for the original of a refrenced image and puts a copy of the image on the desk top of the person who clicked export. please? I am not very good with computers and I don't know how to write scripts but I have a workign database that I need to speed up by refrencing images instead of embedding them directly into the container. However if i refrence them the people who search the database are not able to just quickly export the images they need. -sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mark Osborne Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 You can accomplish this with a scripting langugae like AppleScript but I often use the Troi File plug-in. It allows you to perform a lot of system level commands such as searching the hard drive, moving a file, renaming a file and even modifying the contents of a file. However, you will need to learn the special programming commands in the File plug-in but it's a lot easier than learning AppleScript from scratch.
