______________________________________________________________________ Hey Joe, Okay. Something like this should work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- set _template to alias ((path to home folder as text) & "test_directory:BBEdit_Test_Dir:Template.txt") set basePath to ((path to documents folder as text) & "(2014):") tell (current date) set _month to its month as text set _year to its year end tell set newFileName to _month & " " & _year & ".html" set newFilePath to basePath & newFileName tell application "BBEdit" set newDoc to open _template tell newDoc to save to newFilePath tell document newFileName # Do your edits. # Save. end tell end tell ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Are you actually pasting into the newly opened template? If so there's probably a better way. -- Best Regards, Chris -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group.
